The new CROWD ROASTER lineup will include the "KKW Kenya Tim Factory SL28 Washed"!
This brand was carefully selected by CROWD ROASTER 's green bean specialists from the few Kenya AA coffees available in Japan.

To commemorate the release, we have prepared a trial package created by three talented roasters.
This is a limited edition item, so be sure not to miss out!

Kirinyaga, located on the east side of Mount Kenya, is a famous coffee producing region along with Nyeri and Karatina. The 12 factories (processing facilities) owned by the historic Baragui Agricultural Cooperative (established in 1953) in this region constantly share information and pay close attention to maintaining quality.

 

 

Tim Factory, one of the 12 factories that produced this coffee, brings its coffee cherries to the factory. In the washed process, the cherries are sorted before pulping, and the fermentation to remove mucilage is done in an environmentally friendly dry fermentation method that does not use water. After washing, the cherries are dried in the sun on a dry table for 8 to 14 days.

In this region, farmland is dotted at high altitudes of 1,600 to 1,800 meters, and the soil made by fertile volcanic deposits produces coffee with rich flavor. The varieties grown are SL28 , SL34, Batian, and Ruiru 11, which are standard varieties cultivated in Kenya.

The grade of this coffee (green beans) is AA, the highest grade in Kenya, with a screen size of 17-18 (approximately 7mm) or above, allowing you to experience the outstanding sweetness and clarity that is unique to the highest quality Kenyan coffee.

Thanks to the careful work of the producers and Tim Factory, we have created a coffee that has a rich sweetness, complex flavor, and mild acidity that can be felt at any roast level.

To celebrate the launch of our new brand, "KKW Kenya/Tim Factory/ SL28 /Washed," we have prepared the "African Cruise Kenya Edition," a tasting set featuring coffee from three different roasters.

CROWD ROASTER management office immediately took the opportunity to cup the Kenyan coffee that had just arrived, and what stood out most about this Kenyan coffee was its intense sweetness!

It has a gentle sweetness similar to that of wasanbon, as well as a Kenyan berry flavor and fruit flavors such as raisins and oranges. It has a clear yet complex impression.
It has an excellent balance of sweetness and acidity, making it a coffee you'll want to sip slowly over time.
To commemorate the release of this brand, we had three talented roasters roast it so that you can experience the charm of this brand. The roasting level is light, medium, and dark, so you can enjoy the difference depending on the roasting level.

Light roast by Tomomichi Morifuji (RED POISON COFFEE ROASTERS)

 

Medium roast by Shin Sano ( MAKOTO )

 

Deep roast by Yoshiyuki Nakamura ( mamepolepole )

 

I asked him.

We have prepared this set after careful consideration of various compatibility factors, such as brand, roaster, and degree of roasting.
Enjoy the difference in the taste of Kenyan coffee depending on the roaster and roasting level!

The product name, African Cruise, was chosen with the hopes of creating the brand that CROWD ROASTER will seek out in the future.

Please stay tuned for further updates!
