Blind Assessment
Fruit-driven, brightly sweet. Nectarine, black cherry, magnolia, pomelo, cedar in aroma and cup. Gently bright, sweetly tart acidity; crsip, dry-vermouth-like body. Resonant, harmonious, integrated finish.
Notes
Produced at the organic-certified Kona Rainforest Farm, entirely of the SL34 variety of Arabica, and processed by the anaerobic washed method, with the addition of an organic yeast strain (developed in collaboration with Miguel Meza) to the fermentation. Paradise prides itself on quality and freshness, craft-roasting coffees in small batches only after orders are placed. Visit paradiseroasters.com or call 808-498-4048 for more information.
Bottom Line
A Kenyan variety of Arabica grown on the Big Island of Hawai’i, this coffee is a Kenya twin but more fruit-forward with notes of stone fruit and citrus.
