Kenya's coffee auction system dates back to 1934. The auctions still take place at the Nairobi Coffee Exchange and are widely considered to be the most transparent distribution system for specialty green coffees anywhere in the world.
Ahead of each auction, samples of each lot are distributed to the 50 or so licensed exporters (or 'members') of the Nairobi coffee Exchange where they are cupped and sent on to their customers. An agaent then bids on behalf of the exporter.
The auction system is open to all producers both small and large. It can be difficult to gather detailed information on the provenance of many coffees, and to achieve complete traceablity on all lots. This situation is slowly changing as the market in Kenya adapts to the needs of the Specialty coffee market.
This Kenyan presents a stunning silky and balanced coffee with sparkling peach and jamlike raspberry sweetness.
