What are the flavor characteristics of Bourbon-West Hanna Manor, a French missionary in Kenya? Is it famous?

Kenya is one of the birthplaces of mankind, and fossilized human skulls from about 2.5 million years ago have even been unearthed in Kenya. From 1890 to 1963, it was under British colonial rule for about 70 years.

At the beginning of the 20th century, French and British missionaries and researchers screened and cultivated coffee trees in Kenya, and successfully bred "SL28" and "SL34", the direct descendants of Bourbon species. Over the past hundred years, Kenyan coffee has long adapted to Kenya's high concentration of phosphate soil, and has given birth to the special sour essence of Kenyan coffee beans, which is different from bourbon grown beans in other Central and South American countries.

Unlike most of the improved SL28 and SL34 cultivated in Kenya, French missionaries (French Mission) are native varieties of bourbon coffee before scientific improvement. In the late 19th century, the French diplomatic corps was introduced to Kenya from the island of Bourbon (now Reunion). It retains the flavor characteristics of traditional bourbon varieties, and the appearance and flavor of this variety are similar to those of Luanda bourbon, which is planted almost all over the neighborhood.

"French missionaries: West Hanna Manor" is named after the river that flows through the manor. The local soil belongs to crimson and fertile volcanic soil. The Harries family has been growing coffee for nearly a century and has rich experience in growing coffee. In line with the local ideal local conditions for coffee production, the output has always had a good flavor.

In addition to the sustainable operation of the coffee industry, the owner of the manor also focuses on giving back to the local community by donating more than 50 mu of land to Thika City Hall and Wabeni technology research institutions, dedicated to educating children from poor families on practical living skills and improving the living conditions of local people.

Postscript: I was originally expected to buy this "French missionary: West Hanna Manor" this month, but I was one step behind. Not long after the supplier bought the beans, they were immediately snatched up. I was amazed and appalled by the popularity of these beans. It seems that you can't hesitate next time. If you lock in the target, you should do it right away.
