Kenyan Coffee from Q.O.L. Coffee in Nagoya, Japan

Kenya Kamunyaka Iriani Nyeri AA

TASTING NOTES

Overall: Very fruity and underlying cereal flavor and has a wonderful sweet sugary aroma
Acidity:  quite a bit of acidity but still very pleasant drink
Body: Light and crisp
Flavor: Profile on the label describe it Tropical fruits / Pink grapefruit and I think so, too. And it has a bit of cereal flavor (or maybe even herbal)

Very little to no oil found on beans

MY THOUGHTS

Firstly, these beans require your extra attention in terms of water temperature and fineness of ground coffee as its taste can be rather unpleasantly sour. So you need to grind as fine as possible and keep the water temperature slight higher than 90°C.
Once you get the recipe right, you will have wonderfully crisp and flavorful coffee. In addition, coffee has amazing aroma and it is nice to fill the whole room with sweet coffee smell.
I notice that roasting was done with very little amount of oil as you see virtually no oil residue on beans.
I strongly recommend to stop by Q.O.L. Coffee when you visit Nagoya. You can check this nice little cafe before/after cheking out Nagoya castle which is about 10 mins away by walking

Interestingly, all of coffee bags on display were loosely sealed and they permanently heat sealed the bag right  after I paid 

You can see an interesting looking CO2 release valve on top right corner of the bag
