Summer is here and we're returning to Africa to celebrate! Our first washed African coffee, this Kenyan is perfect for sunny days and lazy afternoons.

Expect a bright, crisp, tea-like body with a bright citrus acidity that leaves a lingering caramelised sugar and dark chocolate finish. It's a coffee with something for everyone!

How to brew it? Well, however you want! A zingy, punchy espresso. Or a bright, crisp filter brew. Even as a lighter alternative on french press. 

Oh, and did we mention that it is PERFECT over ice on a hot day?

ABOUT THE PRODUCER

From Omwani:

"Behind this exceptional coffee is a commitment to community. Lot 20, the team behind Metibellion Coffee, chooses smaller-scale facilities over high-tech alternatives to support the local economy. Farmers are valued as partners, receiving fair prices, financial training, expert advice, and access to quality seedlings. By incorporating locally grown fruit into their innovative co-fermentation process, Lot 20 deepens its connection to the region.

Since establishing the Metibellion Coffee Co washing station in 2024, Lot 20 has been expanding its impact, with plans for a decaffeination plant on the horizon. Every sip of Metibellion Coffee supports not just exceptional flavour but a brighter, more sustainable future for the community."
