SL28 grown in Nyeri produces the blackcurrant note Kenyan coffee is known for, and this lot has it clearly. It is the most acidic coffee we sell, which is the appeal for some drinkers and the reason others should skip it. Kenyan coffee is expensive because the auction system rewards quality directly, and this lot cost us more per pound than anything else on the list.
