Frontside Coffee Roasters brings you an exceptional Kenyan coffee that exemplifies the bold, distinctive flavors this renowned coffee region is famous for. Our Kenya Rita AB light roast combines select coffee beans from two prestigious mills: Gatura in Nyeri County and Mutitu in Kirinyaga, creating a classic representation of premium Kenyan coffee.

Experience the unique processing methods that make Kenyan coffee stand out in the specialty coffee world. Local smallholder farmers deliver only the ripest coffee cherries to wet mills, where each batch undergoes meticulous sorting and washing. The signature Kenyan double-fermentation process, including a 24-40 hour second soak, develops the brilliant acidity and clean profile that Kenya's finest coffees are celebrated for. These carefully processed beans are then sun-dried on raised beds, ensuring even air exposure for optimal flavor development.

This premium Kenyan coffee delivers an elegant flavor profile characteristic of the finest East African coffees. In each cup, discover delicate floral notes of hibiscus and lavender, balanced by brown sugar sweetness and the region's signature winey acidity. Sourced from the exclusive "fly" crop - a special midseason harvest - this coffee offers a unique seasonal expression of Kenya's celebrated terroir.
