Blind Assessment
Sweet-toned, crisply and delicately bright. Strawberry, orange, meadow flowers, roasted cacao nib in aroma and cup. Gently brisk acidity; light but very silky mouthfeel. Strawberry and cacao nib in particular carry into a tartly sweet finish.
Notes
Despite spectacularly rugged terrain that presents daunting transportation and infrastructure challenges, the high mountain valleys of central Papua New Guinea offer some of the world's most favorable terroirs for production of fine coffee. Calgary-based Fratello is a second-generation boutique coffee roaster owned by three brothers who focus on responsible trade relationships with coffee growers. Visit
Who Should Drink It
