For filter coffee and espresso
Aromatic
Redcurrants, Kumquats, Yellow Peach
Producer
Martin Muriuki
Variety
SL28, SL34
Process
Yellow Honey
Grown at Ngacha Estate in the Kirinyaga highlands, this batch combines two iconic Kenyan varieties, SL28 and SL34, with a Yellow Honey process that allows more matter and sugars from the mucilage to accompany the drying.
Ngacha Estate is a family farm whose history began in 1954. Today, Martin Muriuki, the second generation, continues his father's work by developing Kenyan reference varieties and experimenting with different post-harvest treatments.
In the cup, the profile is particularly interesting because it doesn't overdo the fruit. The cup begins with redcurrant, with that sensation of a small, bright, and tart red berry. Kumquat then takes over, bringing a more delicate, almost zesty citrus note. Finally, the yellow peach arrives, juicy and sweet. The cup as a whole is balanced and elegant.
