Blind Assessment
Richly sweet, deep-toned. Cocoa nib, star jasmine, black currant, cane sugar, ripe tomato in aroma and cup. Umami-like acidity; full, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. Resonant, umami-driven finish with floral undertones.
Notes
Produced by smallholding members of the Gachatha Farmers’ Cooperative Society from trees of the SL28 and SL34 varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Buon Caffe is a specialty coffee roaster and cafe in Taipei, Taiwan. Visit www.buoncaffe.com.tw for more information.
Bottom Line
A deep, rich, satisfyingly savory-edged Kenya that has all the classic notes: black currant, cocoa nib, spice-toned florals and sweet tomato.
