Kenyan coffee is for drinkers who like their cup with personality. It's bold, bright, and unmistakably berry-forward — one of the most distinctive origins you can buy.
Where it's grown
Grown at high altitude on rich volcanic soils, Kenyan coffee is meticulously processed and graded (you'll often see the grade 'AA' for the largest, highest beans). That care, plus the altitude, builds its signature intensity and clarity.
What it tastes like
Look for blackcurrant and citrus over a crisp, wine-like acidity and a juicy, full body. It's vivid and a little wild — a cup that stands out in a lineup.

How to brew it
To capture the berry brightness, brew the medium roast as a pour-over with a medium grind. Kenyan can take slightly hotter water (200–205°F) thanks to its dense, high-grown beans.
