kenya

stopped by the bux this morning for a cup of kenya, which is the feature this week. the description from the site indicates flavors of berry and fruit (sweet tropical) as part of the this particular bean. however, before i looked it up, i tasted my cup of kenya to see what i could ascertain using my own tastebuds. i registered more of an earthy, nutty taste than citrus tones. perhaps if i tasted this alongside another coffee for comparison, i might detect more of what is said i should expect.

they also mention that this coffee is "prized for its bright and refreshing acidity." this i can verify. it is not overly acidic. it is distinguishable.

food recommendations for this blend are:
Berries, oranges and currants evoke Kenya's fruity undertones - sip it over a berry tart for complete insight into Kenya's awesome depth.
hmm...i'll have to try some berry pastry next time i swing by and receive a cup of kenya. i like this blend. it is from the african/arabica region and it is definitely strong coffee.

note: i drink my coffee black. sometimes with a pastry, the sugar will enhance the taste of the coffee as i drink it. if you are one to put sugar in your coffee, there is a chance you might find some of the flavor mentioned above. not sure. try it and see.
