Kenya Riakiberu
Riakiberu is a settlement in the center of Kenya. This harvest of their coffee is overseen by the Nyeri umbrella, which is an organization in Kenya similar to Fair Trade. These are the AA beans which are the largest, and they are very well sorted and very clean.
The importer scored this coffee at 87 points, and that's a fair score. It might be a little nicer. It's a coffee you still think about the next day. It is tart, but in a good way, in a make-your-mouth-feel-alive way.
The prominent tastes in this Kenya are kiwi, lime, and grapefruit. If you dig deeper, you may notice floral and winey undertones. Overall the coffee is vibrant with a pleasant acidity, and thick body.
