Kenya washed beans
Kenyan water washing is a cyclic repeated treatment after fermentation. On the day of harvest, the best quality coffee cherries are selected, peeled and fermented. The fermentation time is 24 hours, and then washed with clean river water after 24 hours. Then, it is fermented again with clean river water for 24 hours, and then washed, so it is repeated 3 times for 72 hours, so it is called Kenyan 72-hour fermentation water washing treatment, referred to as K72. This treatment allows the coffee beans to ferment for a long time at low temperatures, so that the beans can have a brighter, cleaner but full flavor.
Qianjie coffee editor can't wait to make a cup of Kenyan honey processing plant Asali to drink, strong tomato aroma, berry aroma, sweet and sour amplitude, fresh and sweet aftertaste, and a hint of blackcurrant aftertaste. This coffee begins with sour and ends with sweetness. It is one of the favorite coffees of the editor.
Kenyan sun beans
Next, let's take a look at the traditional Kenyan coffee.
Sun exposure is less common on the market in Kenya, probably because of the excellent quality of Kenyan water washing, coupled with the sun loss rate and high labor costs, which can only be found in the special customized plans of some raw bean merchants. This bean is treated in the sun, which adds solidity and sweetness to the already rich and sour bourbon coffee in the process of exquisite sun exposure. With a limited number of sun batches, this coffee is completely dependent on the natural climate.
This breed of coffee is the missionary bourbon, and French missionaries brought bourbon trees to Kenya around 1892-1893. This native bourbon tree species, known as renchMission Varietal (French missionary species), avoids scientific improvements in the planting process and retains the original flavor of bourbon.
This coffee is not graded according to Kenya, which is probably due to the micro-batch, but it has a high defect rate and does not look good. The flaws in the traditional tanning method have reduced the appearance of this coffee, so what is its flavor? Let's try it.
What's amazing is that this coffee tastes good! Dry aroma with sun fermentation, dried fruit and vanilla, sipping can drink caramel, vanilla, comprehensive fruit, solid juice, finish with berries, strong jackfruit, coffee flowers. The overall performance is like the wild ancient morning taste of Africa, suitable for small sips and slowly taste, the complex aroma is difficult to give up ~

Qianjie Coffee Editor's words: the characteristic flavor of Kenya is sour, especially the lightly roasted Kenyan washed coffee often has the sour aroma of tomatoes and berries, and if it is roasted too lightly, it will have the smell of grass and sour. It is not easy to bake and brew Kenya coffee properly, you will find that the smell of honey is similar to that of honey in the wet fragrance, and the fragrance of flowers is complex and changeable. Whether it is tanned or washed Kenyan coffee, the water temperature should not be too low, generally 90: 92 ℃ is more suitable.
