Many people ask about Kenyan coffee and wonder why its fruity acidity is so special? FrontStreet Coffee will introduce the flavor characteristics of Kenyan coffee.
Characteristics of Premium Kenyan Coffee
Premium Kenyan coffee is aromatic, rich, and fruity with a perfect and abundant flavor profile. Kenyan coffee has a wonderful fruity character, tasting of blackberries and grapefruit, making it a favorite among many coffee connoisseurs. This Kenyan coffee features excellent medium body with a crisp and clean mouthfeel. The flavor is refreshing and perfect for making iced coffee in summer. When tasting this Kenyan coffee, pairing it with acidic fruits like grapefruit will surely provide the best coffee experience. "Not quite like coffee, but more like fruit tea" is a common impression many people have of this light-roast Kenyan coffee.
Unique Flavor Variations
In addition to its distinctive and captivating fruity acidity, Kenyan coffee mostly comes from small coffee farmers who grow it in various different environments. Each year brings different climates and rainfall, resulting in various vivid and unique personalities. Take the AA Plus grade "Kenya AA+ Samburu" as an example: the 2001 Samburu had rich plum aroma with moderate acidity and a thick mouthfeel. The newly harvested 2002 winter Samburu presented completely different flavors - mulberry berries and green plum accompanied by hints of Southeast Asian spices, with a sweet green tea aftertaste. The acidity was slightly higher than the previous year, while maintaining its rich body. Generally, common Kenyan coffee doesn't have a heavy body but features bright, fruit-like flavors. Some have spicy notes, while others have red wine aromas. This is how Kenyan coffee keeps coffee enthusiasts full of anticipation and surprise!
