Blind Assessment
Sweetly pungent, chocolate-toned. Baker’s chocolate, dried cherry, magnolia-like flowers, cedar, hazelnut in aroma and small cup. Sweet-toned in structure with gentle, rounded acidity; velvety mouthfeel. The finish leads with notes of magnolia and cherry in the short, and cedar and hazelnut in the gently drying long, with good chocolate throughout.
Notes
Produced at Conquista Farm from trees of the Red Catuai and Yellow Catuai varieties of Arabica and processed by the pulped natural method, meaning that the outer skin of the coffee fruit is removed as it is in the wet or “washed” process, but at least some of the sticky fruit residue is allowed to dry on the bean and later removed by machine along with the parchment skin. Good Coffee Club pays a premium to the farm’s non-profit partner, Socially Conscious Coffee, which provides education, healthcare and sustainable teaching practices to help improve the lives of the coffee harvesters and their families.

Bottom Line
A chocolaty Brazil cup with sweet nut notes throughout, animated by dried stonefruit and floral suggestions.
