Kenya Peaberry Coffee

Peaberry is when one coffee bean grows inside a cherry instead of two. Because the rounder shape minimizes sharp edges, it allows the berries to roll about in the roasting chamber more easily and roast slightly more evenly resulting in a very consistent flavour to the coffee.

Kenya Peaberry Coffee is similar in taste to Kenya AA coffee.

Kenya Peaberry (PB) Coffee beans are a natural mutation of the reproductive cycle of the coffee bush when only one bean is produced by the coffee cherry rather than two. Peaberry beans have to be hand-sorted after picking to separate the rounder, fatter beans from their double counter-parts. This adds a premium to the price of Peaberry and some people say that because there is only one bean it picks up more flavour, body and sweetness when roasted. I have always enjoyed drinking Kenya Peaberry Coffee.
