Description
Coffee overview
This year, we vac sealed and air freighted all our Kenyas, to provide interesting drops off-season. This is the last lot we have that is big enough for our Roaster's Choice subscription, and it is a stunner. A very well-structured cup full of vibrant flavors, typical Kenya tartness, and sublime jasmine florality. Not to miss.

Filter eval day 1: Gabi Standard Recipe of 1:18 Brilliant cup, play between intense bright acidity and abrupt jasmine finish is quite fun, with a well-structured jello-like sweetness in the middle. Perfect roast.
We use 60 hardness, 20 buffer water heated to 198F in all of our recipes.
