amka is a kenyan coffee from stean's beans, processed using anaerobic fermentation. in anaerobic processing, whole cherries ferment in sealed, oxygen-free tanks before drying, which intensifies fruit-forward flavours and adds complexity that a washed kenyan typically wouldn't have. no tasting notes or roast level were supplied, so check the roaster's current batch details for specific cup characteristics. brew guidance likewise depends on roast, but anaerobic kenyan coffees often respond well to pour-over or filter methods that let the fermentation character come through clearly without muddying the cup.
