Description
Kenya Kiriani is a true eyebrow raiser: light and bright, with ripe mango and sweet tangerine, finishing on the subtle candy floss sweetness that Kenyan coffee does better than anywhere else. It represents everything that is great about the country’s coffee, and it comes in a 400g bag rather than the 227g standard.
Where it comes from
Kenya’s central highlands — the volcanic ground around Mount Kenya — produce some of the most recognisable coffee in the world, and Kiriani is a fine example of the style. Fully washed, sun-dried and graded for quality, the lot is bright and clean rather than heavy, with all the fruit coming from the coffee itself.
What it tastes like
Mango and tangerine first, then a floral lift, then candy floss on the finish: sweet, light and genuinely refreshing. Body is light, acidity is bright and the finish is clean. Drink it black as a filter or pour-over to get the full effect; it also makes a vivid espresso and an unusually elegant cold brew.
Your grind, ground to order
Choose Whole Bean if you grind at home, or have it ground for Filter, Cafetière, Chemex, Aeropress, Espresso or Stove Top. We grind to order, so the coffee is ground for your brewer on the day it ships rather than months before.
Sizes: a 400g bag.
Why buy your coffee from Tank Coffee
We roast to order rather than to stock, so your beans are packed within days of leaving the roaster instead of sitting in a warehouse. Everything is roasted by hand in small batches by Garth, our master roaster, and every bag leaves us whole bean or ground exactly as you asked for it.
We buy directly and fairly from the farms and cooperatives we name on this page, and our roasting has earned Great Taste Awards gold — judged on what is in the cup, not on what is on the label. Buy once or set up a subscription: you choose the delivery rhythm, you can change or cancel it from your account at any time, and there is no lock-in.
