Blind Assessment
Crisply sweet, chocolaty. Baking chocolate, hazelnut, lemon balm, cedar, lily in aroma and cup. Brisk, sweet-toned acidity; velvety-smooth mouthfeel. Finish consolidates to notes of baking chocolate and lily.
Notes
A rare coffee grown on the island of St. Helena, a British territory in the South Atlantic Ocean — a green-tipped Bourbon processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Sea Island Coffee is a London-based roaster specializing in rare origins and varieties. Visit seaislandcoffee.com.
Bottom Line
A coffee as interesting for its rare origin (the island of St. Helena) as its friendly, chocolaty and nut-toned cup.
