Kenya AB Central showcases the heritage and clarity Kenyan coffees are celebrated for. Grown across the Central Highlands of Kenya, this Grade AB lot is cultivated by smallholder farmers at various washing stations, drawing on generations of coffee tradition and meticulous post-harvest care. The high-elevation terrain around Mount Kenya—with its cool climate, rich red volcanic soils, and well-timed rainfall—creates ideal conditions for coffee cultivation. This combination encourages slower cherry development, producing denser, more complex beans that express distinct regional character.
Kenya AB Central is known for its bright, lively acidity and medium-full body—a hallmark of Kenyan washed coffees. Expect a harmonious interplay of cocoa and honey notes, with a lingering finish reminiscent of blackcurrant. These vibrant characteristics are balanced with sweetness and structure, making this coffee versatile across brew methods from espresso to drip and cold brew.
The “AB” grade refers to bean size in the Kenyan grading system—beans that fall between screens 15 and 18—indicating larger, well-developed seeds that contribute to even roasting and consistent flavor.
Kenya AB Central is a fine example of how altitude, washed processing, and cooperative farming come together to deliver a coffee that’s expressive, balanced, and distinctly Kenyan.

This isn’t a regular Dark Roast, it’s a cool Dark Roast.
Our ode to dark roast is a little bit smoky, a lot a bit tasty, and has all the integrity and flavour you’ve come to expect from a Good Grief coffee. A blend of seasonal beans, the Dark Roast will satisfy drinkers without leaving the bitterness of a traditional French Roast behind. It’s perfectly balanced notes of molasses, baking spice, and caramel make it suitable for both filter coffee and espresso, and everything in between. Although roasted a bit darker than our standard coffee, the nuance of the beans still shines through giving the drinker a delicious mouthful of caffeinated goodness, sip after sip.
