Riakiberu
This bright and expressive Kenyan coffee showcases juicy fruit, floral sweetness, and a clean, tea‑like finish. Notes of apricot and raspberry meet a hibiscus‑tea character that brings elegance and lively acidity. Sourced from the Riakiberu Washing Station in Murang’a County, this AB‑grade lot reflects the work of hundreds of smallholder farmers growing coffee in rich volcanic soils at 1,650 masl.
