Blind Assessment
Deeply rich and enticing. Orange blossom, cocoa, fine musk and black cherry liqueur in aroma and cup. Plump, juicy acidity; lightly velvety mouthfeel. Hints of cocoa and black cherry in a long, richly drying finish.
Notes
Produced by farmers Don Sabino and Steven Vargas at El Jordan Micromill in Costa Rica from Caturra and Catuai varieties of Arabica. This is a dry-processed or "natural" coffee, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or "washed" coffees. Dragonfly Coffee is a Boulder, Colorado-based micro-roaster that produces high-quality coffees and supports worthy causes.
