Kenya: Select Plus AA, Kiambu County

AA Select Plus highlights Kenya’s largest, most uniform screens chosen from cooperative factories that use the classic double‑washed method—soak, wash, soak—to maximize clarity and sweetness. Kept light in the roaster, this lot shows textbook Kenyan articulation: lemon–grapefruit zest and black‑tea structure over a honey‑cane core, with red‑currant and subtle floral lift. The acidity is bright and laser‑clean but composed, never harsh; body lands silky and tea‑like with fine grip. Expect a long, graceful finish where citrus and black‑tea notes linger around gentle sweetness—an energetic, elegant AA that pops on the palate impeccably tidy in the cup.
