Blind Assessment

Sweetly tart, richly savory. Magnolia, pink grapefruit zest, ripe blackberry, dark chocolate, toffee in aroma and cup. Brightly sweet, complex structure with high-toned acidity; plush, very syrupy mouthfeel. Magnolia and blackberry notes lead in the long, resonant finish.

Notes

Produced by smallholding members of the Gachatha Farmers’ Cooperative Society from trees of the SL28, SL34 and Ruiru 11 varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Kakalove Café is a nano-roaster located in the small city of Chia-Yi in Taiwan that strives to procure and roast the finest quality coffee.

Bottom Line

A particularly enticing rendition of the classic Kenya cup with deep, dark berry fruit and distinct undertones of dark chocolate and toffee.
