Blind Assessment

Harmoniously sweet-tart-savory. Dark chocolate, pomegranate, shiitake mushroom, jasmine, sandalwood in aroma and cup. Sweet-savory structure with vibrant, high-toned acidity; full, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. The finish is a sweet-savory duet of dark chocolate and shiitake mushroom notes.

Notes

Produced from trees of the Geisha variety of arabica and processed by the carbonic maceration natural method, which usually involves fermenting whole fruit inside a sealed container that has been flushed with CO2. 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

An inviting, enigmatic Panama cup, experimentally processed, that rewards with umami richness as well as classic sweet-tart impulses.
