Kenya AB Honey Bush Medium Roast
Kenya AB Honey Bush Medium Roast
Kenya is well known for its highly organised network of coffee cooperatives. This system produces remarkable consistency in growing methods, milling, and auctioning across a web of about 150,000 growers, the majority of which are small-scale farmers. The topography of high-altitude plateaus in major Kenyan coffee regions combined with acidic soil provides excellent growing conditions for Arabica coffee.
All Kenyan coffee is graded primarily by screen size (a measure of the size of the bean, larger being higher grade) immediately after milling; it then proceeds to the weekly auction at the Nairobi Coffee Exchange. The AB Grade is one of the top grades based on screening.
The Kenya profile is very unique and distinguishes itself easily from other origins. Intense citrus brightness all along the palate and notes of vanilla and bergamot merge with complex winey flavors. A medium body provides balance and grounding.

Beautiful beans that when extracted just right release some beautiful and playful fruity flavours that just brighten up any espresso-based drink.
We enjoyed this but found it slightly too acidic so mixed with some other beans. It maybe our lightweight Sage Bambino which doesn't extract light- medium roasts well.
Great service , received the coffee quickly and it delicious .
Perfectly roasted,very smooth flavoursome coffee.I've found Kenya coffee quite harsh before (maybe the roast) but not this one keep up the good work 👍
Can I taste nutmeg, blackcurrant or chocolate? Lol no. But the coffee pour is beautiful, smells amazing and tastes fab. Not bitter at all.
