Blind Assessment
Lush floral notes and suggestions of fruity chocolate are pleasantly felt behind a dominating bittersweetness that leans a bit more toward the bitter than the sweet. A floral-toned sweetness softens the astringent finish.

Cafe Moto is a wholesale coffee roaster with its roots in the Pannikin coffee chain, one of the West Coast's pioneering specialty coffee roasters. Best of Africa is one of the Pannikin/Cafe Moto long-running signature blends Visit
Who Should Drink It
Those who enjoy dark roasts partly for their bitterness, here nicely complicated by a halo of floral and fruit notes.
