Kii Light - Brew Chart & Impressions

Kenyan coffees are quite famous in the specialty world and know for their intense notes. This coffee is no exception. (if you prefer espressos or drink your filters with milk, we highly suggest you check out the Kii Dark)

Most of the specialty world buys almost exclusively the ''big beans'' from Kenya: the AA and AB grade.
After cupping 10 lots blindly, most of them AB and AA, the clear winner was a C grade, which is a smaller green seed that usually fetches, for some reason, a much lower price.

This coffee is beautiful and straightforward, with loads of notes that we associate with Kenya often.

We get a lot of berries like blackberry and black currant, notes often associated with both Kenya and the SL varietals.
The blood orange acidity makes this coffee come alive, and the mango notes are super sweet and juicy.
In the finish, we had tons of chocolate, and because we are fancy like that, we think it tasted like chocolate truffles. Maybe it just taste like regular chocolate as well ;-)
