Kenya Mandela Estate - Light Roast

Black Currant, Kumquat, Maple Syrup

The Kenya Madela Estate is an exceptional coffee that has a restrained acidity, depth of sweetness and is very balanced across the roast spectrum. Roasts on the lighter end are bright, but not overwhelmingly so and we tasted notes of kumquat, gooseberry, black currant and raw sugar. Darker roasts tame the acidity further and amplify the layers of sweetness with notes of black currant, toasted marshmallow and maple. This is a versatile coffee that would work well in a blend, as a drip coffee, and especially as a maple and citrus sweet single-origin espresso.
