## What the Brand Says

> Sparkling Cherry, Soft Peach & Cola Some coffees announce themselves with intensity. This one wins you over with clarity. Fairview Estate has been producing coffee since the early 1900s, making it one of the oldest continuously operating estates in Kenya's Central Highlands. Located along Kiambu Road at 1,750 metres above sea level, the estate combines more than a century of farming experience with a strong focus on sustainability, carefully cultivating SL28 trees on nearly 100 acres nourished by the Riara River. The result is everything we love about great Kenyan coffee: bright, expressive and beautifully balanced. Expect sparkling cherry acidity, soft peach sweetness and a lingering cola finish that keeps each sip interesting. A classic washed Kenyan with elegance, vibrancy and remarkable clarity.
