This AA Fully Washed blend from smallholders in Kirinyaga County in Nyeri is packed with intense and complex fruit flavors. Kenyan coffees are classified by size. AA beans are the largest size. AA grade coffees are those that are 17/18 screen size, meaning that they are larger than 7.2 millimeters. Farmers selectively handpick only the ripest cherries, which are then delivered to local washing stations. At intake, cherries are carefully hand-sorted to remove underripes, overripes, and any damaged fruit before pulping. Like most high-quality Kenyan coffees, this lot is fully washed and dried on raised beds. Many of the best washing stations are known for their meticulous processing standards and long-standing, experienced management, contributing to Kenya’s continued reputation for excellence in coffee.
