kenya kirinyaga is a washed bourbon from the kirinyaga region of kenya, roasted by capital coffee roasters. the washed process removes the fruit before drying, which tends to produce clean, clearly defined cup character. expect blackcurrant at the centre of the flavour, with the brightness and acidity typical of kenyan washed coffees. it suits brew methods that highlight clarity, so a pour over or filter approach works well. grind fresh, use water around 93-96°c, and give it a gentle bloom to let the fruit notes come through without bitterness.
