Kenya AA coffee beans are adjacent to Ethiopia, the origin of Arabica coffee trees in the north of Kenya, but it was not until the beginning of the 20th century that they began to engage in coffee cultivation. In the 19th century, missionaries introduced Arabica trees from the leaves, but did not plant them in large quantities. It was not until 1893 that coffee was cultivated on a large scale after the introduction of Brazil's ancient "bourbon" coffee seeds. In other words, the current Kenyan coffee is of Brazilian origin. Due to the difference in water, climate and handling methods, the Kenyan and Brazilian bean flavors are fragrant, rich and fruity, and the taste is rich and perfect. Kenyan coffee has a wonderful fruit flavor, tastes like BlackBerry and grapefruit, and is a favorite of many coffee gluttons. This coffee has an excellent medium purity, crisp and refreshing taste. It has a fresh flavor and is most suitable for drinking iced coffee in summer. When tasting this coffee, if it is paired with sour fruits such as grapefruit, it will certainly give me the best coffee experience. "not much like coffee, but a bit like fruit tea" is the common feeling of this shallow roasted Kenyan coffee. Kenyan coffee has many followers in the boutique coffee industry, and Kenya AA has an extraordinary popularity.
