What's happening with Kenyan Coffee

Steve Leighton, proprietor of Has Bean Coffee, has been on a trip to Kenya.

Naturally, this is doubly close to my heart, and so it was interesting to read his thoughts on his return.

There's an encouraging twist in there that we can expect some good Kenyan coffees to land in the UK in a few months time as a result of his trip.

But, sadly, most of what he writes is quite sad. Kenya used to be associated with really good quality coffee (allowing for the fact that every country of origin outputs a lot of junk along with the quality, and that Kenyans have a particular cup profile which isn't suitable for all tastes or purposes). It seems that things are shifting, but not for the better.

Any, you may want to read his blog post.
