Blind Assessment
Juicy-bright, sweetly tart. Red plum, tamarind, almond, tangerine zest, agave syrup in aroma and cup. Citrusy, high-toned acidity; very full, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Tangerine zest and agave syrup lead in the resonant finish.
Notes
Produced at Nyeri Hill Estate, from trees of the SL34, SL28 and Ruiru varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying).

Bottom Line
A classic Kenya profile with notes of stone fruit and citrus front and center, as well as bright, balanced acidity — very sweet, elegantly tart.
