Ibonia Estate AA, Kenya - Filter

Located in Kiambu, just outside Nairobi, Ibonia is a family-owned coffee estate with a long history of cultivation. At approximately 1,700 metres above sea level, the farm benefits from a cool climate, fertile volcanic soils and extensive areas of preserved natural forest. These conditions allow the coffee cherries to develop gradually, encouraging the sweetness, acidity and complexity for which Kenyan coffees are celebrated.

This particular lot is made up of SL28 and SL34, two varieties closely associated with Kenya's distinctive coffee character. Following harvest, the cherries undergo fully washed processing, including an extended soaking stage that helps produce a clean, well-defined cup.

In the cup, expect a lively combination of blackberry, currants, orange, delicate florals and ripe fruit sweetness. Notes of red currant and blackberry are complemented by a orange-like sweetness and a subtle citrus acidity. The result is a refreshing, structured coffee with a smooth, lingering finish.
