Blind Assessment
Quietly rich, distinctive. Brisk notes of fine black tea and fresh-cut cedar balanced by considerable sweetness: honeysuckle, ripe apricot, vanilla. Crisp, pleasantly bittersweet acidity; light, silky mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates but lasts in a gently drying finish.
Notes
Produced from trees of the rare (and expensive) Ethiopia-derived botanical variety Gesha (also spelled Geisha). Las Margaritas Gesha was produced without the use of pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilizers. Barrington Coffee is an artisan roaster dedicated to elite coffees, fresh delivery and roasting that foregrounds the coffee and not the roast.

Who Should Drink It
The unusual juxtaposition of brisk, cedary black tea notes with lush ripe fruit and floral sweetness is original and attractive.
