Blind Assessment
Floral-toned, richly fruity. Wisteria, lychee, kumquat, cocoa nib, marjoram in aroma and cup. High-toned, juicy acidity; viscous, syrupy mouthfeel. Very floral finish with cocoa undertones.
Notes
Produced by Juan Carlos Mejia of Finca La Secreta, entirely of the Caturra variety of Arabica, and processed by the anaerobic natural method with the addition of lychee to the fermentation. Bear Lake Coffee Co., a B Corp-certified coffeehouse and roastery located in Barronett, Wisconsin, is committed to sustainability through its Coffee with a Purpose™ initiative, which ensures that farmers receive compensation well above the Fairtrade Premium for their exceptional small-batch coffee.

Bottom Line
Colombia Caturra co-fermented with Lychee for dramatic and delicious effect — think floral bomb carried by distinct lychee notes (and cocoa nib).
