Balanced, brightly sweet. Tangerine, bay leaf, cocoa nib, narcissus, fresh-cut oak in aroma and cup. High-toned acidity; crisp, syrupy mouthfeel. Long, lingering resonant finish.
Notes
This exceptional coffee was selected as the No. 20 coffee on Coffee Review’s list of the Top 30 Coffees of 2023. Produced by Luis Gerardo Bravo Ordonez of Finca El Chaferote, entirely of the Pink Bourbon variety of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Bird Rock Coffee Roasters is a retailer and wholesaler focused on organic and socially responsible coffees; it was named the “2012 Micro Roaster of the Year” by Roast Magazine.

Bottom Line
A compelling rendition of Pink Bourbon with distinct citrus, cocoa nib, and spicy floral tones — especially lively, juicy acidity.
