GACHENGE AA

The new Kenyan crop has arrived! Our first release of the new season is a superb lot from Kirinyaga. The Gachenge Estate offers everything we love about Kenyan coffee, with a profile full of juicy fruit.

The Gachenge AA, sourced from the Gachenge Estate in the Kirinyaga region of Kenya, represents the distinct profile often associated with this renowned coffee-growing area. Roasted by The Barn, this lot is characterized by the roaster as having a juicy fruit profile. Kenyan coffees are frequently celebrated for their vibrant acidity and complex, layered structures, which often challenge the palate to identify specific nuances within the flavor wheel.

While the specific sensory experience of any single lot depends on its unique processing and terroir, the AA classification indicates the largest screen size of the beans, a standard often linked to high-quality grading in the region. By focusing on the output of the Gachenge Estate, this coffee offers a focused look at the meticulous cultivation practices prevalent in Kirinyaga. It serves as an excellent example for those looking to explore the bright, fruit-forward characteristics that define the Kenyan coffee landscape.
