Roasting
Filter Roast
Our filter roast is generally lighter than our espresso roast and is specifically optimized for use in all types of manual brewers, AeroPress, Switch, Syphon, Pulsar, and Moccamaster. This roast brings out the fruitiness and sweetness of the coffee beautifully and is not recommended for use in fully automatic coffee machines, regardless of the roast level.
Light Roast
The light roast, with a roasting time of 7 to 10 minutes, primarily highlights fruity aromas without dominant roasted notes. The body can vary from light to medium, with often increased acidity being noticeable. This roast is ideal for lovers of fruity and floral coffees.
Processing
Washed Process
In the so-called washed process (also known as wet processing), the coffee cherries are thoroughly washed after harvesting and sorted by size using various sorting channels. In this context, larger and heavier beans are considered to be of higher quality. The fruit pulp is removed, and the beans are fermented in water tanks. After fermentation, the remaining mucilage layer is completely washed off. The coffee beans (the pits of the coffee cherries) are then dried in the sun on so-called African beds, with some farms also using special units that function like greenhouses to protect the beans from the elements. The process concludes with a final finishing in the dry mill, where the beans are also usually graded.
Country of origin
Coffee Cultivation in Kenya
Kenya is known for its high-quality coffees and has traditionally been associated with the SL varieties. Due to climate change, however, new, more resilient varieties such as Ruiru 11 and Batian are increasingly being introduced. Kenyan coffees are known for their intense acidity and fruity notes, which make them particularly popular among coffee connoisseurs.
Specialty Coffees
Microlot: Exclusive small batches
A microlot represents a high-quality, small batch of coffee that is selected due to special characteristics such as a specific variety, exceptional growing conditions, or an innovative processing method, such as anaerobic fermentation. These coffees often come from a specific part of a farm where the soil, microclimate, and sun exposure offer optimal conditions for cultivation. Microlots are known for their high quality and limited availability and often offer unique flavor profiles that set them apart from standard coffees.
Types of Coffee
Arabica
Arabica is the most widely consumed coffee variety in the world and is generally considered to be of higher quality compared to Robusta. Arabica coffee is characterized by a refined flavor profile that can range from fruity to chocolatey and nutty aromas. This variety is partly due to the cultivar, the country of origin, the soil, and in particular, the cultivation altitude. Arabica is grown at higher altitudes, typically above 1,000 meters, where the slower growing conditions promote the development of richer and more complex flavors. However, Arabica is also more susceptible to pests and fungal diseases such as coffee leaf rust. More recently, Arabica-Robusta hybrids have been developed to combine the robustness of Robusta with the refined flavor characteristics of Arabica.
