Rob says: After a long hiatus spanning nine years, the beloved Filter coffee of 2014, KIANGOI, makes its triumphant return to the scene. Named after the very washing station where its journey begins.
This AA lot of Kiangoi is a dynamic cup, with big sweetness, fresh fruits, and floral complexity. In the nose you find sweet notes like honey and brown sugar, along with baked fruits such as peach and cherry. It has a nice vanilla flavor, adding depth to its already rich profile, which works well with emergence of sweet citrus notes reminiscent of mandarin and blood orange dancing gratefully in the finish.
