    SL-34

    History

    A Bourbon sub-variety mostly found in Kenya, SL-34 was selected from an individual tree planted in the privately owned Loresha Estate, Kabete, Kenya.

    Developed by the Scott Agriculture Laboratories as with its fellow sub-variety SL-28, all individual selections made between 1935 – 1939 were prefixed “SL.”

    Earlier sources claimed SL-34 as a mutation of the French Mission sub-variety. However, recent studies have indicated that SL-34 is related to Typica.

    Genetic Trait

    SL-34 was designed to be high yielding with good cup quality. Its bean size is large compared to other Arabica coffee beans.

    SL-34 is adapted to high altitude areas with strong rainfall and, but susceptible to coffee berry disease.

    Taste Profile

    SL-34 profile is characterized by its complex citrus acidity, heavy body, with clean and sweet aftertaste.
