We have been looking forward to the launch of this Seasonal Summer Blend since the Fall! As with some of our past summer blends, this is a Kenya origin coffee, and we once again have the pleasure of working with our Direct Trade Partner Solai Coffee to source an exceptional Single Origin Kenya AB offering from the Liwani Estate co-owned by Mr. Stephen Kuria & Mrs. Margaret Kuria. The Liwani Estate is located in the town of Solai in Nakuru County, Kenya, Africa.Ā
We had the absolute pleasure of being contacted and visited by a family member of the farming region, Benita Chelagat, to work with us in developing this direct importer relationship with one of the family members of the farm, Peter Kuria, at Solai Coffee!
Having this direct importer relationship with Solai Coffee is important for us because there is a direct link to the family farm, for traceability of the supply chain, knowing the attention to detail with the farming and processing of the coffee is at the highest level, and most importantly knowing that the money paid for the green coffee is going directly back to the community and farm at origin instead of being divided up across multiple entities across a larger supply chain.

After sample roasting Kenya AA, AB, and PB grade offerings, we felt that the AB had qualities that made it exceptional in our cuppings/tastings. Typically AA grade Kenyan coffees are seen as more desirable, but we found the AB to be much more complex and flavorful than the AA for this current crop. We were also excited to create our own unique roast profile when approaching this particular green coffee bean. Once you taste the Summer Blend with our unique roast profile, we think you will agree that we made the right choice in souring this exceptional AB coffee!
Some notable attributes that make this coffee exceptional are:
ā¢ A fruit-forward flavor profile with a sweet fragrance and aroma
ā¢ Versatile across various brew methods and temperatures (Hot & Iced)
ā¢ Refreshing as an iced coffee for Summer
ā¢ A perfectly balanced sweetness & acidity profile
ā¢ A vibrant, yet delicate, complex flavor profile
