Blind Assessment
Rich, juicy and tartly sweet. Complex floral and fruit notes in aroma and cup: dusk flowers, black currant, dried berries, stone fruit. Sustained fruit-laced and bright-toned acidity that does not overwhelm or distract. Flavors soften and simplify in the finish.
Notes
Despite stresses brought on by social unrest, charges of corruption and a confused transition toward an open market, the famed Kenya coffee auction system and its participating cooperatives continue to produce some of the world's most elegant and distinctive coffees. Paradise Roasters prides itself on roasting and shipping coffee only after orders are placed. Its metaphoric mission is to bring some paradisiacal warmth from the coffee-growing south to the cool environs of Minnesota. Visit www.paradiseroasters.com or call 763-433-0626 for more information.
Who Should Drink It
A classic Kenya, rich with the signature Kenya berry character, lush yet crisply reserved.
