About this coffee

A really nice example of a traditional washed East African coffee. A vibrant complexity of flavours and mouthfeels, making this a complete and satisfying cup. Doesn’t leave you wanting anything more or anything less. Whack it through a V60 or brew it on batch to let the florality really sing.
