🔥 ROASTED TO ORDER. Quills doesn't roast this until you buy it. Four guys, 45-pound batches, four roast days a week in Louisville, Kentucky. It rests to degas, then ships. Their words, not ours: "All coffee is roasted to order."

Why I carry it: Bright, juicy, unmistakably Kenyan. Not an every-morning coffee for everybody, and that's the point.

The standout:

  • Embu, Kenya, from the volcanic soil around Mt. Kenya. Fully washed AA
  • Batian, SL28, SL34 and Ruiru 11 varieties
  • Quills tastes grapefruit, mango and iced tea

The volcanic soils of Mt. Kenya grow some of the most sought-after coffees in the world.

This AA lot from the Embu region highlights everything we love about coffees from Kenya: bright acidity, cane sugar-like sweetness, and fantastic complexity.

Like most Kenyan coffees, this blend of Batian, SL28, and SL34 varieties was fully washed before being sorted by size. AA represents the largest screen size. Historically, Kenya AA has been prized for its greater cup quality. 

We're tasting grapefruit, mango, and iced tea
