What is a Varietal?
One Type of Bean, from One Region like our Transitional Kenyan AA!
A varietal is a coffee made exclusively from one type of coffee bean from a specific growing region. Like fine wine-growing areas around the world, coffees also have preferred growing areas where environmental conditions are perfect for creating premium coffee.
For instance, Sumatra Indonesia coffee comes entirely from the Sumatra region/island of Indonesia, the premier coffee-growing area high in the mountains of Indonesia.
Even the slightest difference in growing altitude or conditions can account for flavor difference between varietal coffees. For the purist, varietals capture the essence of a particular region's unique coffee characteristics.
