Blind Assessment

Delicately fruity aroma, sweet cherry with a hint of chocolate. In the cup sweet, rich, surprisingly full-bodied, with a dry, wine-toned black currant fruit and a slight burned undercurrent. Sweetly rich short finish, but a hint of burned astringency shadows the long. This was the highest rated of three Starbucks coffees nominated and reviewed for this article.

This is the ninth in Starbucks' Black Apron series of limited production, elite single-origin coffees. Visit www.starbucks.com for more information.
