VARIETAL

SL28

SL28 is a renowned coffee varietal originally from Kenya that's prized for its bright acidity, juicy body, and complex fruit flavours. It showcases notes of blackcurrant, citrus, and tropical fruit with a wine-like sweetness. Best suited for filter brewing, SL28 usually delivers a vibrant, aromatic cup with excellent clarity and a long, sweet finish.

PROCESS

Natural (Dry)

During the natural or dry method, the entire coffee cherry is dried with the beans inside, allowing the fruit to naturally ferment and impart flavour to the beans. Once dried, the outer layers of the cherry are removed, revealing the green coffee beans.
