Kenya AA Coffee and Kenya Coffee

Kenya coffee is commonly described as having an almost sweet taste accompanied by wine-like or fruity overtones. Kenya AA coffee is comprised of the largest, most well-shaped, and densest coffee beans available from the plateaus on which the plants are cultivated. This ensures the presence of much prized aromatic oils essential to the production of the amazing aroma and distinctive flavor enjoyed by consumers everywhere. Kenyan coffee is graded on a scale by the Kenyan coffee board to denote the beans’ size, and subsequently, the flavor one can expect from them.

The “AA” grade marks out the very largest beans that naturally contain the largest content of aromatic oils that are so integral to the coffee-drinking experience. As the highest grade of Kenyan coffee and considered one of the best Arabica coffees globally, Kenya AA coffees are all produced from the finest Arabica beans. This can be one of the reasons why people love to buy Kenya AA coffees.

The coffee cherry skin is first peeled off, after which the remaining beans are left to soak in a tank. Known as wet-processing, leaving the beans to soak in a fermentation tank allows the beans’ own enzymes to loosen the residue that remains on their surface. This loosened residue forms a thin, parchment-like layer when the beans are dried in the sun and can be removed with no trouble at all with a mechanical huller. Beans are graded based on their size following the milling process. The meticulous roasting process ensures excellence when it comes to coffee. It is well-known all over the world. It is much sought after for its bold, intense, full-bodied flavor accompanied by overtones of berry and citrus fruits and mild floral fragrance.

Growing Kenyan Coffee

The mountainous, East African terrain of Kenya is made up of volcanic, loamy soil with a distinct red appearance. The richness of the soil provides fertile ground for the cultivation of excellent coffee. Kenyan coffee is grown on plateaus that soar up to 4900-6800 feet above sea level. Approximately 2 million coffee bags are produced each year from the coffee plantations dotted around the now extinct Mount Kenya. The cultivation of coffee in Kenya is relatively new compared to Ethiopia and was initiated at the end of the 19th century by Christian missionaries who brought the seedlings together with religion. However, the combination of topology, mild climate, bright, tropical sunshine and seasonal rains produce exceptional coffee that is unique to the region. Coffee is now one of Kenya’s most important and lucrative exports other than flowers and tea. As more coffee drinkers worldwide develop the refined tastes and sensibilities of a connoisseur, it’s only to be expected that more of them will seek out and buy Kenya AA coffees. Thanks to its rich flavor and sweet aroma, Kenyan coffee is known as one of the finest coffees available in the world.
