Kenya Kirinyaga Kii Washed
Manta Ray Coffee RoastersAbout This Coffee
This single origin coffee comes from the Kii Factory in the Kirinyaga region of Kenya, operated by the Rungeto Cooperative Society. The coffee is grown at elevations between 1700-1850 meters above sea level on the foothills of Mt. Kenya with deep, red volcanic soil. It is a fully washed coffee that undergoes strict visual sorting, depulping, overnight fermentation in parchment, and drying on raised tables for 8-14 days. The coffee is AA grade, referring to the larger cherry size. The varieties include SL-28, SL-34, Ruiru-11, and Batian. The cup profile features cherry tomato, blackcurrant, and brown sugar notes with sparkling acidity.
