Tim's Notes

Coming from Kenya’s Karogoto Washed Mill, this coffee has a very distinct and intense fruity flavor with a refreshing acidity. Expect notes of rose blackberry, hibiscus and blackcurrant.

Coffee produced in Karogoto is always very clean and boasts intense fruit and floral flavors. This is probably because many cooperatives/farmers still grow the SL28 variety and have been trained in agriculture for a long time. The climate also contributes to the intense flavor of the coffee. Cool nights and moderately hot days allow the fruiting process to proceed slowly, producing a very sweet, intense and unique coffee.

This year’s coffee has a strong ripe fruity flavor reminiscent of blackberries and blackcurrants. Usually, Karogoto coffees tend to have a light body, high acidity, and a sour taste like rosehip, but this year’s profile feels a little different. It seems closer to the ‘classic Kenya’ style with rich purple fruit flavors.
