Blind Assessment
Gracefully sweet in the aroma, with soft fruit and floral notes. In the cup, sweet-toned acidity, medium body and delicate flavors of blossoming flowers, honey and summer fruit. Very clean finishing with a lingering sweetness.
Notes

This is a special selection from the upper part of the farm at about the 1,600 foot elevation, with fruit removal by the traditional washed method.
