Blind Assessment
Rich-toned, exceptionally sweet. Blood orange zest, lilac, baking chocolate, pear, cedar in aroma and cup. High-toned, bittersweet structure with juicy, balanced acidity; satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Long, chocolaty, fruit-toned finish.
Notes
Produced by several growers in Huila, entirely of the rare Ethiopia-derived botanical variety Geisha (also spelled Gesha). Processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). Paradise Roasters specializes in micro-lot Arabica and Robusta coffees from Asia and other emerging origins. The company prides itself on quality and freshness, craft-roasting coffees in small batches only after orders are placed. Visit www.paradiseroasters.com or call 763-433-0626 for more information.
Bottom Line
A pleasing introduction to the Geisha variety in an affordable Colombian rendition: classically sweet, richly aromatic.
