Kenya (Pack Size: 1kg)

Fresh Roasted Kenyan Coffee Beans

Kenyan coffees remain significantly lower in volume than expected.

This has created shortages of Kenyan coffees and more importantly, prices for Kenyans are up +30% due to the supply limitations.

Kenya sets the pricing system for their coffee via the government controlled Auction system. This means farmers receive the price they expect - if the buyers don't wish to pay the price, the farmers don't sell, hold their coffee until the buyers meet the market price. For this reason, Kenya is rather unique in the way the coffees are traded.

Unfortunately, we have no choice but to pay the higher prices being asked for the best Kenyans - it's a simple case of demand far exceeding supply.

Kenyans are typically strong, powerful and intensely-flavored coffee with a sharp acidity, winey, dark cocoa syrup rich finish.

Kenyan coffee is ideal for many of the slow-brewing methods such as plunger, drip, stovetop, aeropress, V60, Kona filter, etc where they will show higher flavors.

However, they also work very well in espresso extraction or filter brewing where the clean rich cup will provide a long finish.

We have experienced great success with Kenyan coffees and as such we these beans into our Grand Cru selection.

These single origin Kenyan coffee beans have an impeccable reputation often ranked at the top of the world quality grading system.

Everything about the farming and preparation of Kenyan coffees is first class - there are no compromise on quality or standards with the care and methods used by farmers being the envy of the rest of the coffee producing world.

In some respects, Kenyan coffees sit head and shoulders above the rest - this is well understood and respected by brokers and coffee roasters around the world.

The best Kenyan coffee beans command premium prices and for this reason it is not unusual for good Kenyan beans to fetch twice the price of quality arabica from other countries.

There is a richness and intense flavor from a good Kenyan bean.

Most roasters will only use small amounts of Kenya coffee in their blends to supercharge flavor and acidity.

As we source quality Kenyan coffee scoring 86 points and above, we offer these quality Kenya coffees at a steep discount to the market price.
