Kamwangi Peaberry

About This Coffee

This coffee is a peaberry selection from the New Ngariama Cooperative on the slopes of Mount Kenya, grown at an altitude between 1,500 and 1,900 meters. It is a blend of SL28, SL34, Batian, and Ruiru 11 varieties, processed using a traditional Kenyan double washed method. The roast level is medium light, resulting in a vibrant and complex flavor profile featuring notes of caramel, brown sugar, ripe berry, plum, marmalade, blood orange, and hibiscus, with a smooth, syrupy finish.
