APOLLON’S GOLD – Kiamabara

Our first purchase from Kiamabara was a lot in 2018. Their coffee left a pretty good impression to us, with bright tropical flavors so this is our 2nd purchase from the factory, after 7 years of the first purchase.

While the other Kenya in our lineup, Gititu, is a great lot that reminds us of those Kenyas in the good old days, with black currant flavors and red wine vibes, Kiamabara represents the other side of Kenya in a perfect way. This lot is full of bright and tropical flavors that we seek for in a modern Kenya coffees, with its underlying rich sweetness that creates amazing balance in the cup.

Expect perfumed passionfruit, followed by guava flavors, and sweet melon notes in the finish.

We recommend degassing this coffee for at least 35 days, up to 70. Our coffees often peak around 45 days and 60 days post-roast and are best enjoyed from then until the 90 day mark.

Our omniroast style leads to abnormally long degassing times, but just trust us, once your coffee is degassed properly, you’re in for a treat.
