Blind Assessment

Balanced, deep, chocolaty. Lavender, red currant, gently scorched cedar, baking chocolate, Meyer lemon zest in aroma and cup. Roundly sweet-tart structure with bright, balanced acidity; crisp, velvety mouthfeel. Almond notes surface in the sweetly roast-toned finish.

Notes

Comprised entirely of the celebrated SL28 variety of Arabica and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). Green Stone Coffee is a woman-owned artisan roastery in Taipei, Taiwan founded in 2016 and specializing in sourcing distinctive coffees that express their individual terroirs.

Bottom Line

A roast-rounded, complex Kenya cup with classic currant and crisp chocolate notes and an especially vibrant acidity, particularly given the darker roast.
