Blind Assessment
Bright, balanced, richly sweet. Dark chocolate, narcissus, Meyer lemon, thyme, apricot in aroma and cup. Juicy-bright acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. Dark chocolate is the throughline in the satisfying finish.
Notes
This 100% Ka’u coffee was developed by Lorie Obra of Rusty’s, one of Ka‘ū’s best-known and most celebrated farms. Produced from trees of the Typica variety of Arabica and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying).

Bottom Line
A pleasing, chocolaty, floral-toned washed Ka‘ū cup with pretty notes of citrus, stone fruit and sweet herbs.
