Blind Assessment
Subtly rich, crisply sweet. Brown sugar, rhododendron, baked green apple, walnut, oak in aroma and cup. Crisp, apple-like acidity; lightly velvety mouthfeel. Brown sugar, green apple, rhododendron all carry into a sweet, gently drying finish.
Notes
Produced from trees of the Caturra and Catuai varieties of Arabica by the Cooperativa de Caficultores de Dota, a cooperative admired for its environmental and social initiatives as well as its fine coffees. JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.
