A light, winey acidity with grassy, gum forest aromas and medium creamy body with a short-lived nutty aftertaste.
Originally developed and grown in Kenya and Tanzania, this Bourbon cultivar hybrid has adapted to the sub-tropical climate and is harvested from May to September. Once picked, the ripe cherries are pulped, fermented, skin dried and placed on sun-drying racks for two weeks. Six months later, the outer shells of the beans are removed and depending whether they are to be sold ground or whole, are roasted to a medium or dark roast respectively.
