This lot is a blend of traditional SL varieties alongside the modern, disease-resistant Batian and Ruiru 11 cultivars. Following a meticulous 12-24 hour fermentation and sun-drying on raised beds, the coffee presents a vibrant and complex profile. It leads with the tart, bright acidity of rhubarb and sweet berry jam, followed by a comforting, aromatic depth of warm baking spices
