VEE - Kenia Top Massai AA Estate, 1.10lb whole beans |
|
|
 |
VEE Kenya Top Maasai AA Estate come from selected plantations is called the Barolo among coffee varietals.
VEE sets the standard for unique top-class coffee and country roasts. Mr Scharaffia is the heart and soul of the company with his phenomenal coffee expertise and Mr Wolfram Tismer takes care of buying the coffee around the world. VEE spells pleasure of the rarest quality. I only know a few people who know their way around with coffee and its optimal roasting as Mr Scharaffia, Mr Tismer and his wife Kusaya, called VEE. One could think they have only put it into their heads to roast grade 1 coffee for life. A Mercedes would not be enough for them; their requirements to raw coffee at least have to be Maybach standard. It sounds quite ambitious, nevertheless VEE Caffè does put these maxims into practice, and very consistently so. They still roast hand-selected high-grown gourmet Arabica coffees from about 2000m, what are called Grand Cru coffees from Indonesia, East Africa and Latin America. Only the Grand Cru coffees, growing in high mountain regions under excellent climatic conditions to ripeness more slowly, which makes them much harder, are suited for careful, intense and substantially more aromatic roasts. That is why all VEE coffees develop their characteristic fragrance, an intense aroma and all nuances typical of coffee flavour to the full, something of which supermarket coffees do not have the slightest hint. Besides, VEE coffees have much lower acidity, are richer and possess long lasting aromas. The freshly roasted beans release such intense fragrance.
VEE Kenya Top Maasai AA Estate comes from selected plantations and is called the Barolo among coffee varietals. Consistent and rigid supervision of cultivation, harvest and processing make it one of the best African coffees. VEE Kenya Top Maasai AA Estate grows right next to the Equator on volcanic soil which stores the heat and slowly passes it on to the coffee plant. The optimum conditions at an altitude of between 1500 and 2100m on the foothills of Mount Kenya (5199m) make sure the cherries ripe slowly. Although the price for AA Estate coffee is nearly twice as high as ordinary coffee enjoying a cup of VEE Kenya Top Maasai AA Estate will surely convince you it is worth the extra bit of money.
The coffee is delightfully aromatic, fruity and spicy with a harmonious balance of body and acidity, which is reminiscent of a great Barolo or Brunello. May be VEE Caffè is not among the cheaper coffees. Yet on closer inspection this coffee is still inexpensive. The price becomes relative very quickly when you think that you only need 7g of this first-class coffee, i.e. 500g make more than 70 cups at a price of 21 Cents each. |
