Hongera Kent AA Washed - Leon Christianakis - 200g

Freshly Roasted at SoLo Brewing Lisboa, by your own Adroaldo, we show you this Kent AA from Leon Christianakis, a Kent from Tanzania that is fermented then Fully Washed before drying.

I named this coffee Hongera, in Swahilli it means Congratulations or to congratulate. This is a homenage to the my late Father in Law, Nelcy Campos Filho, who would often congratulate people and moments, always being positive towards the ones around him. We deeply miss you Nelcy!

We find this fitting for this coffee, as it is amazing smooth and fully bodied, the kind of confort coffee we all love!

It will behave really nice on filters and really shines on espresso, with deep milk chocolate and hazelnuts notes and a hint of red fruits.

Notes from the supplier:

The cherry sorting process begins in the field and continues at the washing station, where de-pulping is carried out in the evening. The coffee is then subjected to an open fermentation process for a period of 12 to 13 hours. During this time, the coffee is regularly checked to monitor the level of fermentation. Once the fermentation process is complete, the coffee is washed and graded to separate P1, P2, and floaters. The drying process, which typically takes 13 to 16 days depending on weather conditions, continues until the parchment reaches a moisture content of 12% on the beds. The dried parchment is then transferred to a dry storage area.
