Blind Assessment

Delicate, quietly sweet-toned. Roasted cacao nib, red grape, fresh-cut fir, lemon zest, gardenia-like flowers in aroma and cup. Gentle, rounded structure; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. The finish consolidates to notes of lemon zest and gardenia with a hint of fresh-cut fir.

Notes

Bottom Line

A pleasing, light-footed and accessible Kenya cup: crisp, citrusy, sweetly wood-framed.
