Kenya 'Ol'Ochoy' 250g - portafilter (2)

Grind size: portafilter (2) Pack size: 250g
Description

Product information "Kenya 'Ol'Ochoy' 250g - portafilter (2)"

On our origin trip to Kenya in January/February 2023 we fell in love with the coffee of the Meteitei Set Kobor cooperative in Nandi County and were keen to get it again from the current harvest. But since all Kenyan coffees have to pass through a state-run auction, something happened that we would never have believed: Chris, our importer at Wertkaffee, who has been bidding well above the market for years to bring "his" coffees our way, was outbid – on several coffees from farms we had visited. On the one hand that makes us happy, because prices at this level are what actually give coffee farmers a living. On the other hand, we didn't get the coffee we wanted.

Luckily, Chris managed to secure the coffee from Ol'Ochoy, the neighbouring farm just a short walk up the hill – where the even higher altitude gives the coffee an even livelier cup. And honestly: who else carries a coffee from a farm where you were allowed to stay overnight and help harvest and process the coffee yourself? Farm owner Paul Lilan is actually a well-known lawyer in Nairobi, but he is deeply committed to the people of his region and helped found the Meteitei Set Kobor cooperative. The coffee is grown entirely under organic conditions; certification is planned.

Farm visited – traditional and organic – coffee: superb! Everything about this one is simply right.

  • Region: Nandi County, West Kenya

  • Harvest: September to January

gscheid.guad 1kg - whole beans
Grind size: whole beans Pack size: 1kg

Good – better – gscheid.guad: This is the coffee that started it all for us back in 2016 – the very first full sack of green coffee we ever roasted through was a mild Guatemalan. Ever since, gscheid.guad has been our classic for the daily mug: nice and mild, sweet and aromatic, with no rough edges. Now it's getting a new chapter. After almost ten years with our green coffee from Lake Atitlan, we sadly had to say goodbye to that source – and found what we were looking for in the highlands of Huehuetenango, right on the Mexican border. In a region where coffee accounts for around 80 percent of the local economy, countless smallholder families grow it at 1,400 to 2,200 meters. Our lot goes by the name "Waykan" – meaning "star in the night sky" in the local Maya dialect Q'anjob'al. Behind it stands the Regional Select program by Cafe Imports: instead of a single microlot, the best lots of many smallholders across the region are combined, all cupping between 84 and 87 points – so what you taste is the terroir of Huehuetenango at its finest. At the cupping table, the Waykan won us over right away, because it does exactly what gscheid.guad has always been about: plenty of milk chocolate, toffee and caramel, a fine sweetness and a soft, clean acidity. As one of our lighter roasts, it even reveals a hint of bright fruit notes when hand-brewed – something for the coffee nerds to taste twice. We recommend classic filter brewing, though many of our customers love it from their bean-to-cup machine, too. ...Origin: .Guatemala, Huehuetenango .Lot: "Waykan" Regional Select .Type: 100% Arabica .Varieties: Bourbon, Catimor, Caturra a.o. .Altitude: 1,400-2,200m .Processing: washed .Harvest: December to May ...Cup profile: .milk chocolate .toffee .caramel .mild and sweet Ideal as a fine, mild filter coffee - our classic for V60, Kalita, Chemex and other filter brewers

Peru Kuelap 1kg - whole beans
Grind size: whole beans Pack size: 1kg

Our Peru Kuelap is history – but its successor has nothing to hide. With Lima Norte, we're once again bringing a coffee from northern Peru into our range, this time from Cajamarca, the country's most important coffee-growing region. Behind this coffee stands Rony Lavan and his exporting organization Lima Coffees in Jaén. Rony is one of the driving forces of Peru's specialty scene: a passionate cupper on a mission to discover and develop the best lots from Cajamarca's smallholder farmers – and in his very first year with Lima Coffees, he won the national competition. The region's smallholders typically farm just 2-3 hectares on fertile Andean slopes. Our lot grows at 1,650 to 1,800 meters and is processed the classic way: depulped, fermented, washed and gently dried. Our roast profile highlights what this coffee naturally brings to the table: fine notes of cocoa and almond that come together almost like praline in the cup, a floral aroma, and a soft, ripe sweetness. The acidity stays gently in the background – a delicious, easy-drinking Peruvian for every day. The green coffee is Fairtrade certified. .Origin: Peru, Cajamarca .Cooperative: Lima Coffees, led by Rony Lavan, Jaén .Type: 100% Arabica .Varieties: Caturra, Bourbon, Typica, Catimor .Altitude: 1,650-1,800m .Processing: washed, sun-dried .Harvest: June to September ...Cup profile: cocoa and almond, flowery Aroma, praline-like sweetness Ideal as classic filter coffee, also works great in fully automatic machines.
