Kenya: Thiririka AB

the kenya thiririka ab is a washed kenyan coffee from muttley and jack's coffee roasters. the ab grade refers to the screen size of the bean, a standard kenyan grading system. washed processing keeps the flavours clean and distinct, which shows clearly in the cup: expect blackcurrant and stone fruit up front, a winey quality that gives it some weight, and a floral, jasmine-like lift in the finish. it suits filter brewing well, where the clarity of the washed process can come through without being masked. a medium-to-light roast approach typical of specialty kenyan lots makes it a good candidate for pour-over or aeropress.
