Blind Assessment
Delicately citrusy, multi-layered. Pink grapefruit zest, apricot, salted caramel, baking chocolate in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with bright, balanced acidity; energetic, satiny mouthfeel. The bright finish consolidates to notes of pink grapefruit zest and salted caramel.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of the Red Bourbon and Jackson varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying) at the Nemba Washing Station. Wonderstate Coffee, formerly Kickapoo Coffee, is an award-winning roaster based in rural Wisconsin known for its commitment to guaranteeing higher pay for farmers and operating the country’s first 100% solar-powered roastery.

Bottom Line
A vivid and confident washed Burundi with leading notes of stone fruit and sweet citrus, and a very enticing, restrained but lively, acidity.
