Blind Assessment
Nectar-like, sweetly tart, rich-toned. Watermelon candy, cocoa butter, loquat, freesia, graphite in aroma and cup. High-toned, phosphoric acidity; syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. Sweet, long, candy-like finish
Notes
Produced by Edwin Enrique Noreñ of Finca Campo Hermoso, entirely of the Castillo variety of Arabica, and processed by carbonic maceration (which involves fermenting the whole fruit in a sealed container that has been flushed with CO2) and co-fermenting with watermelon and lulo, then dried with most of the fruit flesh remaining on the beans. Produced by Edwin Enrique Noreña, Little Waves Coffee is a Latina-owned, women-forward company that provides livable wages for its diverse team. Visit www.littlewaves.coffee for more information.
Bottom Line
Candy-sweet in its profile, this co-fermented Colombia Castillo evokes the tropics with a side of spicy florals.
