Last Updated: 2024/09/20, There are two types of coffee farms in Kenya. One is a large plantation that covers an area of more than five acres, but the average elevation is low. In the case of Kenyan coffee, the coffee beans of the large farms are of medium quality. The best Kenyan beans come from small farms, most of which are located in the foothills or volcanic slopes above 5,000 to 6,000 feet. Each small farmer has a capacity of only 20 to 70 bags per season.

The best Kenyan beans come from small farms, most of which are located in the foothills or volcanic slopes above 5,000 to 6,000 feet. Each small farmer has a capacity of only 20 to 70 bags per season and cannot afford to invest in expensive washing plants, but small farmers are very United. Hundreds or thousands of households are gathered to set up a cooperative farm, which is funded by the government to build a washing treatment plant, and the coffee fruits picked by small farmers are sent to the cooperative farm for unified processing. First remove the half-ripe or rotten fruit, then peel, ferment, decompose the flesh, remove the coffee beans, then dry and polish, the whole process is supervised by the official Coffee Administration, which ensures the quality of Kenyan coffee. The washing technology and high standard quality control of Kenyan beans have always been an example of bean producing countries.

Kenya AA, round beans, thick flesh, good heat permeability, high precision, French baking, rich and sweet taste, mellow thickness, good expansibility, aroma and sweetness are top grade.

People in the coffee industry all think that Kenyan coffee is one of its favorite products because Kenyan coffee contains every feeling we want from a good cup of coffee. It has wonderful and satisfying aromas, well-balanced acidity, well-proportioned particles and excellent fruit flavors. The taste is so unique that there is almost no similar coffee. Kenyan coffee is characterized by a distinctive fruity aroma. Try to find this flavor in the coffee and pay attention to how it feels in the mouth. One of the common fruit aromas is citrus. Kenyan coffee has a multi-layered taste and the acidity of fruit juice, perfect grapefruit and wine flavor, moderate mellowness on an international scale, the increase in the number of Kenyan coffee is obvious, from 1969 to 1970, export 800000 bags, to 1985-1986, the output increased to 2 million bags. The general yield is stable at 1.6 million bags, with an average yield of about 650kg per hectare. Even before coffee prices skyrocketed, the average price of coffee in Kenya had been rising.

Some buyers, especially Japanese businessmen, have expressed dissatisfaction with the Kenyan coffee industry system. Some businessmen say that the quality of coffee in the country has declined, and point out that buying directly from farmers may be a way to improve the quality. But in any case, Kenya's detailed rules and regulations and sound procedures are a model worth learning from for all coffee-producing countries. It is fragrant, full-bodied, fruity and has a rich and perfect taste. Kenyan coffee has a wonderful fruit flavor, tastes like BlackBerry and grapefruit, and is a favorite of many coffee gluttons. This coffee has an excellent medium purity, crisp and refreshing taste. It has a fresh flavor and is most suitable for drinking iced coffee in summer. When tasting this coffee, if it is paired with sour fruits such as grapefruit, it will certainly give me the best coffee experience. "not much like coffee, but a bit like fruit tea" is the common feeling of many people about this kind of shallow roasted Kenyan coffee. In addition to having obvious and charming fruit acidity, Kenyan coffee is mostly from small coffee farmers, planted in a variety of different environments, encounter different climate and rainfall every year, and bring a variety of distinct and unique personalities. Take the AAPlus grade "KenyaAA+Samburu" as an example, the 2001 Samburu has a strong black plum flavor, low acidity and strong taste.
