Kenya Peaberry Origin and Details

Grown in the Tatu region of Kenya at altitudes ranging from 1,700 to 1,800 metres above sea level, Kenya Peaberry beans are a rare and distinctive type of coffee. Unlike the typical coffee cherries that contain two flat-sided beans, a peaberry contains only one oval-shaped bean, leading to a more concentrated flavour. The beans are washed and meticulously processed to bring out their unique characteristics, resulting in a bright, lively cup.

Brewing Methods and Serving Suggestions

The crisp and refreshing qualities of this medium roast are best enjoyed using pour-over methods like V60 or Chemex, where its lively acidity and citrus notes can fully develop. It also works wonderfully in an Aeropress, creating a more concentrated cup that highlights its unique floral and citrus profile. For a fuller, more traditional experience, try brewing it in a cafetiere to balance its bright acidity with a smooth finish.

Processing Method and Quality Control

Kenya Peaberry beans are meticulously hand-picked and washed, a process that enhances their bright and clean flavour profile. The unique Peaberry beans, which form as a single rounded bean instead of the usual two, are known for their concentrated flavours and higher acidity. The careful processing methods help retain the beans’ natural characteristics, delivering a high-quality cup every time.
