Blind Assessment
Balanced, richly spice-toned. Ginger snaps, nectarine, cocoa nib, jasmine, cherry wood in aroma and cup. Briskly sweet acidity; smooth, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Cocoa-toned finish supported by notes of ginger snap.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of the Bourbon and Typica varieties of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying) at the Mukwinja Washing Station. JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “Let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.

Bottom Line
A quietly confident DR Congo that leads with warming spice notes and cocoa nib throughout the profile and floral tones underneath.
