Blind Assessment

Deeply sweet, citrus-toned. Magnolia, tangerine zest, caramel, baking chocolate, lemon-thyme in aroma and cup. Sweet structure with brisk acidity; satiny-smooth mouthfeel. The delicate finish centers around notes of baking chocolate and tangerine zest.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers around the Riakiberu Factory (mill), entirely from trees of the admired SL28 and SL34 varieties of Arabica and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). Despite grower discontent and urban encroachment on prime coffee lands, Kenya continues to produce some of the world’s most elegant and distinctive coffees. Jaunt Coffee Roasters is a San Diego-based roaster and café with an extensive coffee and food menu. Visit www.jauntcoffee.com for more information.

Bottom Line

A subtly nuanced Kenya cup, citrusy and bright.
