Blind Assessment
Intense, lemony, bright. Lemon drop, rose-like flowers, roasted cacao nib, a brisk hint of black tea in aroma and cup. Powerful, complexly expressed acidity; syrupy mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates but rings on far into a long finish.
Notes
From trees of the Caturra variety of Arabica grown at an elevation of around 6,000 feet, meticulously prepared at La Lia Micro Mill. Calgary-based Fratello is a second-generation boutique coffee roaster owned by three brothers who focus on responsible trade relationships with coffee growers. Visit
Who Should Drink It
Those who enjoy an intensely but elegantly bright, crisply complex cup in the classic high-grown Central America mode.
