Blind Assessment

Complex, multi-layered. Green oolong, rosehips, sandalwood, gingko, Meyer lemon zest in aroma and and cup. Exceptionally sweet with elegant acidity; plush, syrupy mouthfeel. Richly resonant, sweetly tart finish.

Notes

Produced by Marta Bayter and her sons, Shady and Elias, of Vergel Estate. Composed entirely of the Geisha variety of Arabica, and processed by the honey or semi-washed method, in which the skins are removed from the fruit but some of the fruit flesh is allowed to dry on the beans. Bargain Cafe is a specialty coffee roaster in Taitung, Taiwan. Visit https://shopee.tw/iamjiter for more information.

Bottom Line

An enticingly rich Colombia Geisha aromatic fireworks whose promise is fulfilled in the cup with deep oolong-like impulses and sweet citrus zest.
