Paper Kite

Roast level 2 of 5. Light-medium roast
  • Blackcurrant
  • Pink grapefruit
  • Demerara

Kenya Nyeri AA is the coffee that turns coffee people into coffee bores, and we mean that affectionately. Paper Kite is intensely juicy: blackcurrant and grapefruit with a demerara finish that keeps it from feeling austere.

It comes from a single harvest, so it is a seasonal coffee. When this year's lot is used up, Paper Kite rests until the next crop arrives, and subscribers on roaster's choice get first notice when it returns.

One-off orders over $35 ship free across Canada; otherwise flat $5.95.

Rated 4 out of 5

Bright and wild, not for everyone

Paper Kite tastes like blackcurrant jam. My partner found it too sharp, so we swapped his half of the box to Casa Verde. Easy fix.
