Bold, full‑bodied Nyeri AA (Uteuzi Jimbo) with chewy chocolate up front, bright passion fruit in the midpalate, and a cola‑like finish, a Regional Select washed lot built for drinkers who want intensity and clarity.
This Regional Select Uteuzi Jimbo comes from Nyeri, Kenya, a high‑altitude coffee region between Mt. Kenya and the Aberdare Range; the lot blends classic Kenyan varieties Batian, SL28, SL34, and Ruiru 11 grown at 1,500–1,800 masl and processed with a washed method to preserve clarity and fruit character. The Regional Select program sources traceable, high‑quality lots from multiple factories across the county to create a consistent regional expression.
In the cup this coffee is unapologetically bold: a chewy chocolate backbone gives the brew weight and a syrupy mouthfeel, while passion fruit cuts through with vivid, juicy acidity and the cola note rounds the finish with a sweet, slightly effervescent lift. That interplay, dense chocolate meeting bright tropical fruit and a cola‑like sweetness, creates a layered, long‑lasting profile that reads powerful on first sip but reveals nuance as it cools; the result is both intense and balanced, ideal for anyone who prefers a coffee that makes a statement without losing clarity.
Brew to emphasize the character you want: for espresso, aim for a slightly longer extraction to coax syrupy chocolate and cola sweetness into a concentrated shot; for filter, use a 1:15–1:16 ratio with a medium grind to let the passion fruit brightness sing against the chewy chocolate base. Pair with dark chocolate desserts, citrus pastries, or savory breakfasts to match the coffee’s fruit‑forward acidity and robust body. This Nyeri AA is a showcase of regional power, big, fruit‑driven, and distinctly Kenyan, perfect for drinkers seeking a bold, memorable cup.
