Miro Coffee Kibugu, Kenya
This Kenyan filter coffee is like a walk through an orchard in the morning dew - lively, bright and full of energy. If you love complex fruitiness, clear acidity and a silky mouthfeel, this coffee will instantly delight you. The Kibugu roasted by Miro Coffee shows why Kenya is considered one of the best regions of origin for top-quality coffee - with a precision that you can taste and an elegance that lingers for a long time.
The aroma unfolds an interplay of bright red berry flavours with a subtle hint of tomato. On the palate, the Kibugu has a tangy citric acidity that develops into a soft sweetness reminiscent of dried apricots. Notes of cranberry and a fine, silky texture give the coffee a harmonious balance between freshness and depth. The aftertaste remains pleasantly soft and fruity - a prime example of a washed Kenyan coffee with character.
This single origin unfolds its full complexity best in filter preparation - whether with a hand filter, Chemex or batch brewer. Use water with a medium degree of hardness and ensure a brewing time of around 3 minutes. A slightly finer grind than a typical pour over brings out the fine citrus notes particularly well. The Kibugu is less suitable for espresso - its strength lies in its clarity, structure and freshness, which only fully unfold in the filter cup.
Miro Coffee Kibugu comes from the Ngerwe Coffee Factory in Embu, which is part of the Kibugu Cooperative Society Union. The Arabica varieties SL28, SL34 and R11 grow here at 1600-1700 metres above sea level. The beans are carefully washed and double fermented before resting on African drying tables for up to 14 days. This method emphasises the purity of the coffee and brings its origin unadulterated into the cup.
The cooperative attaches great importance to sustainable agriculture, protecting the soil and planting native trees - a commitment that not only benefits the environment, but also the quality of each bean.
