Roaster Jack's Kenya Peaberry
Bottoms Up
By Anna Faller | March 1, 2025
Ever heard of a coffee peaberry? It’s a special bit of nature’s magic that occurs when the stem of a coffee plant produces one seed instead of the usual two and packs it with the unique flavors of where it was grown. It’s also the buzz-worthy star of Traverse City’s Roaster Jack Coffee Co.’s, newest whole-bean java release, Kenya Peaberry. Sourced from a small-batch cooperative in central Kenya, this light-bodied labor of love makes for a brew bursting with bright notes of toffee and zesty citrus, with an aroma laced with delicate herbals like bergamot and jasmine tea. For the best—and purest!—preparation, try it as a pour-over or in a French press, or go for an espresso roast for an extra touch of chocolatey sweetness. Order online ($16 per 12-oz bag) or arrange a local delivery at roasterjack.com.
