Kenya coffee is known for its unique flavour profile. It is characterised by a bright, fruity taste with a wine-like acidity. This is due to the country’s unique soil, climate, and altitude combination, which create the perfect conditions for coffee cultivation. Kenya is the largest coffee producer in Africa, and the coffee industry is important to the country’s economy. Coffee accounts for around 20% of Kenya’s export revenues, making it the country’s third-largest export commodity.

Kenyan coffee is grown in the central and western parts of the country at altitudes ranging from 1,200 to 2,100 meters above sea level. The coffee is grown in well-drained, fertile soil and is harvested between October and December. Kenyan coffee is typically harvested by hand and is very labour-intensive. The coffee cherries are stripped from the branches, and then the beans are extracted through wet processing.

The wet processing method involves removing the outer layers of the coffee cherry and exposing the beans to water. This helps to remove any remaining bits of fruit and mucilage and also helps to set the beans’ final flavour profile.

There are two main varieties of coffee grown in Kenya: Arabica and Robusta. Arabica is the most commonly grown variety, and it is known for its sweet, smooth flavour. On the other hand, Robusta is a hardier plant that is resistant to pests and disease but has a slightly bitter taste.

Kenya coffee is graded based on its size, flavour, and acidity. The top-grade coffee is known as “AA,” is made up of the largest beans with the most complex flavour profile. Lower grades include “AB” and “C,” which are made of smaller beans with less complex flavours.

Kenyan coffee is often blended with beans from other countries to create a more well-rounded flavour profile. For example, Kenyan coffee is often blended with beans from Colombia or Brazil to add body and balance to the final product.

The coffee industry in Kenya is highly regulated, and strict standards are in place to ensure the quality of the final product. The Kenya Coffee Board is responsible for enforcing these standards and promoting the country’s coffee industry’s development.

In addition to being enjoyed as a drink, Kenyan coffee is also used in traditional medicine and as a natural insect repellent. The beans are roasted and ground, and the resulting powder is mixed with water to create a natural insect repellent. The coffee plants themselves are also used to create a natural pesticide, as they produce a chemical called “pyrethrum” that is toxic to insects.
