11. AA Kigari

Rich and fruity

The Coffee

Kigari is an exceptional washed Kenyan, which whilst being classic in profile, offers amazing depth and complexity.

In the cup you will find a dense rhubarb like body, perfectly balanced by the sweet, fruity flavour of ripe raspberries.

This is all held together with an ultra smooth and silky mouthfeel, reminiscent of a well processed Merlot wine.

Scoring 88 on the cupping table, it punches.
