At its best, Kenyan coffee is quite remarkable with a quality and intensity rarely matched elsewhere. The coffees have a bold, effervescent acidity combined with delicious citrus fruit and berry flavours.

A syrupy, viscous melon-like sweetness harmoniously balances taste, elevating the citrus and berry fruit notes. As the coffee cools, undertones of caramel, vanilla, and stewed rhubarb unfold on the finish.

Kagumo is a returning favourite of Artisan Roast and this micro-lot captures the very essence of what we look for in exceptional Kenyan coffee. For this reason we’ve kept the roast light with filter brewing in mind. Coffees like this are rare with an intensity and complexity that Kenya has built a well-deserved reputation on. This approach helps to showcase the complex, almost effervescent, citric and apple acidity. Signature Kenyan blackcurrant and redcurrant notes, complemented by candied lemon, create a delicious fruitiness to the coffee.

We’d recommend drinking Kagumo without milk to best experience the clarity and complexity of and on filter, aeropress or French press. If you prefer milk with your coffee the flavours will switch to a warming, satisfying cinder toffee and citrus curd on a butter like mouthfeel.
