DESCRIPTION
One of our favorite Kenyan coffees is back! We traveled out to the Kii washing station back in January to pick out this specific lot. This coffee was such a standout on the cupping table with complex and deeply sweet stone fruit notes. It's less classic "high acid/tomato-like" in it's attributes and more balanced and thick. The tasting notes and superb cup quality speak for itself.
Named after the nearby river In Kenya’s Kirinyaga County, Kii Factory is one of three washing stations operated by Rung'eto Farmers Cooperative Society.
This particular lot is fully washed and grown between 1,600 and 1,800 masl in clay-loam soil. Dense, ripe cherries are meticulously sorted before pulping. The cherries are then fermented overnight, washed, graded, and dried on raised beds for 8–14 days. Resulting in a clean, structured Kenyan coffee with tasting notes reminiscent of very sweet Loquat, Golden Raisin, and Citron Honey Tea, Peach juice, brown sugar, and a very complex body.
