Green Bean Coffee: Africa - Kenya
Kenya
Coffee from Kenya has a distinctly bright acidity and potent sweetness with a dry wine-like aftertaste. Among the best Kenya coffee, one can find an intoxicating black-currant flavour and aroma.
Kenyan coffee beans are auctioned in Nairobi every Tuesday during harvesting season. This practice has lead to fierce price wars for the best coffee crops. A large percentage of coffee in Kenya is produced by small cooperative societies rather than large Kenya coffee estates. Kenyan coffee beans are wet-processed and the Kenyan coffee bean grade is designated by the size of the coffee bean, where AA is largest followed by A and B, which are successively smaller.
