Flavour

Kua Blue is a blend of two coffees from the same mountain. 70% of the blend is washed arabica, this gives Kua Blue its balanced and smooth baseline flavour. 30% of the blend is honey arabica, this gives Kua Blue its sweet and fruity pop. Both coffees are roasted medium. The result is a perfectly balanced coffee for all occasions. Delicious on filter, stovetop or espresso. Notes of blueberry, citrus and cocoa.
