kenya coffee
by thomsons coffee roasters · glasgow, uk
expect winey. this is kenya aa thunguri, a washed kenya from thomsons coffee roasters.
kenya aa thunguri has a winey tasting profile, meaning it carries a fruit-forward, slightly fermented quality with the bright acidity typical of washed kenyan coffees.
it is grown in kenya and processed using the washed method, where the fruit is removed before drying, resulting in a cleaner cup that highlights the bean's natural characteristics.
its winey acidity and clean washed profile tend to shine through filter methods such as pour over or aeropress, which allow the bright, fruit-forward notes to come through clearly.
the roasted coffee here is worth slowing down for, and if you're after something to take home, thomsons' own roasts are the reason people make the trip out to burnfield avenue rather than settling for whatever's convenient. giffnock isn't the most obvious destination for specialty coffee in greater glasgow, but that's partly the point. a roaster based this far from the city centre has to be good enough to pull people in on purpose. you don't end up here by accident. the suburban setting keeps things grounded, no performance of coolness, just the actual work of sourcing and roasting done at a level that holds up. if you're visiting, go early in the week when stock tends to be freshest.
