Kenya Single Origin – French Press & Filter Friendly

Why it shines in French press

Immersion brewing amplifies the Kenya’s natural sweetness and rounded body, letting caramel and dried fruits bloom without muting that elegant, tea‑like clarity. The cup stays composed as it cools—great for leisurely mornings or sharing the pot. If you’re searching for the best coffee for French press in Australia, this is your juicy, balanced crowd‑pleaser.
