Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Deep-toned, sweetly tart. Black cherry, dark chocolate, marjoram, pink grapefruit, hazelnut in aroma and small cup. Creamy-smooth mouthfeel; chocolaty, tart-leaning finish. In cappuccino format, richly sweet, brightly tart, deeply chocolaty.

Notes

Produced at Finca El General, entirely of the Bourbon variety of Arabica, and processed by the honey method (some of the fruit flesh is left on the beans during the drying process). Kakalove Café is a nano-roaster located in the small city of Chia-Yi in Taiwan that strives to procure and roast the finest quality coffee.

Bottom Line

This single-origin Guatemala Bourbon espresso is laden with dark red fruit notes, distinct, dark chocolate, sweet herbs and rich nuts — especially harmonious in cappuccino format.
