Today, Martin Muriuki, the second generation, continues his father's work by developing Kenyan reference varieties and experimenting with different post-harvest treatments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cup, the profile is particularly interesting because it doesn't overdo the fruit. The cup begins with redcurrant, with that sensation of a small, bright, and tart red berry. Kumquat then takes over, bringing a more delicate, almost zesty citrus note. Finally, the yellow peach arrives, juicy and sweet. The cup as a whole is balanced and elegant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eVariety \u003c\/b\u003eSL28, SL34\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProcess \u003c\/b\u003eYellow Honey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer \u003c\/strong\u003eMartin Muriuki\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion \u003c\/strong\u003eKirinyaga, Kenya\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImpressions\u003c\/strong\u003e Redcurrant, Kumquat, Yellow Peach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e 2\u003c\/span\u003e00g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoast Date \u003c\/strong\u003eSeptember 28, 2026\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tanat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50222538293525,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1151\/8820\/files\/beansoctober26-9.jpg?v=1791488060","url":"https:\/\/knifetoronto.com\/products\/tanat-ngacha-estate-kenya","provider":"KNIFE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
