Kenyan coffee beans are known for having a compelling sweetness and potent character. These coffee beans are grown on rich volcanic soils found in the highlands between 1400 to 2000 meters above sea level. Kenyan coffee is known to be one of the finest Arabic coffee in the world due to their growing conditions.
Our Kenyan coffee beans are no exemption highlighting uniquely sweet, syrupy and full-bodied notes. These single origin beans are 100% premium Arabica beans from Kenya. They are available in a 1 lb bag and come in a medium or espresso roast.
Arabica beans are known for their smoother and sweeter flavour.
Some coffee experts say the coffee taste has hints of chocolate to it. Because of the arabica coffee plant's higher natural sugar content, it offers a more balanced flavour with less bitterness.
These coffee beans are a fantastic option if you are looking to get 100% arabica coffee beans Canada
We offer numerous grinds for all GROSCHE coffee beans, but we recommend shipping all of our coffees as whole bean coffees. This allows you to custom grind your beans for your preferred brewing method. It also means, that you get the freshest and most aromatic tasting coffee every time. Use a coarse to medium grind for French press and pour over coffee makers and a fine grind for stovetop espresso makers.
Our Kenyan Special blend is a medium roast custom blend coffee. When choosing your roast you have three options; light, medium and dark. During the coffee production process, darker roasts involve keeping the beans on the machine longer or at a higher temperature compared to lighter roast coffee beans. When this happens the coffee beans will lose more moisture and become less dense. In the end, this gives the dark/medium roast beans more flavour by taking away some of the bitterness.
So, any coffee lovers' preference will depend on their preferred taste and caffeine content. A lighter roast is dense with a higher caffeine content, a dark roast will bring out more of a single-note flavour and is less caffeinated. And a medium roast is a happy middle-ground between density, caffeine content and flavour.
A common misconception about storing coffee is that is good to put it in the freezer. Freezing your coffee puts it in contact with moisture which ends up draining it of its flavor. The best place to store your Kenyan Special coffee is within an airtight container, somewhere cool, dark and dry.
This could be a pantry or a cabinet, just as long as it’s somewhere away from heat and light. If you really want to store your coffee on your counter, keep the coffee in a canister that is opaque, airtight, and away from direct sunlight. Use it up within 1-2 weeks of opening to enjoy a coffee with the freshest, fullest aroma.
