Passion Project

Mwagi's Estate| Nyeri, Kenya |  Washed Process | Passion Fruit, Pineapple, Cacao & a Buttery Finish

We call this one Passion Project for two reasons.

First, for what's in the cup: bright passion fruit core and pineapple up front, balanced cacao notes, and a smooth, buttery finish that ties it all together. It's a coffee that rewards a slow sip.

Second, because the name is an ode to us. Passion Project is what this business was before it was a business, something built out of love for coffee before it ever turned into a livelihood. This lot, from Mwagi's estate in Nyeri, felt like the right coffee to carry that name.
