Blind Assessment
Complex, richly sweet-savory, deeply floral. Star jasmine, salted caramel, cocoa nib, wild strawberry, mustard seed in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart-savory structure with high-toned acidity; very full, syrupy mouthfeel. Cocoa-driven finish with undertones of caramel and mustard seed.
Notes
Produced at Hacienda Tobosi entirely of the Villalobos variety of Arabica, and processed by the natural anaerobic method (whole fruit is fermented with limited oxygen before drying). GK Coffee is a nano-roastery in Yilan, Taiwan that offers both retail and wholesale coffee. For more information, visit www.gkcoffee.com.tw or email [email protected].
Bottom Line
A uniquely composed Costa Rica coffee processed by an experimental anaerobic natural method that yields a cup equally fruity, floral, and deeply savory.
