Blind Assessment
Sweetly tart: ripe citrus, pungent cedar, sweet almond, hints of cocoa and a not unpleasant dry earth. Round, juicily tart acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. A hint of salt and savory complicate an otherwise sweetly rich finish.
Notes
Produced by the farmers of the CODECH co-operative and Fair Trade Certified, meaning it was purchased from small-holding farmers at a "fair" or economically sustainable price.

Who Should Drink It
The acidity here is not an intense, brightly lemony sensation, but rather ripe, juicy, and complicated by a cedary, slightly earthy character. Lovers of minerally, complex, only moderately dry white table wines might be particular candidates for this coffee.
