Blind Assessment
Sweet-toned, gently fermenty. Lime zest, magnolia, cocoa nib, watermelon candy, a hint of aged grappa in aroma and cup. Brightly sweet with high-toned acidity; full, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. In the short finish, crisp cocoa nib gives weight to watermelon candy notes; lime zest resurfaces in the long.
Notes
Produced in the Villa Rica growing region of Peru entirely of the Geisha variety of Arabica, and processed by the anaerobic washed method, in which the fermentation step occurs in a hermetically sealed vessel. GK Coffee is a nano-roastery in Yilan, Taiwan that offers both retail and wholesale coffee. For more information, visit www.gkcoffee.com.tw or email [email protected].
Bottom Line
An odd though compelling Peru Geisha cup, wide-ranging and original in its flavor and aromatic nuance yet complete and integrated.
