Blind Assessment
Very bright and juicy, tropical-leaning. Kiwi, lychee, dark chocolate, pikake flower, dried mandarin in aroma and cup. Vivid, expressively bright acidity; very full, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. Fruity, chocolaty, very long and flavor-saturated finish that leads with notes of kiwi and dark chocolate.
Notes
Produced by Francisca and Oscar Chacon of Finca Las Lajas, entirely of the Bourbon variety of Arabica, and processed by natural method (dried in the whole fruit). Magnolia Coffee is a Charlotte, North Carolina-based specialty roaster whose mission is to use sustainably sourced coffees to make a difference in the lives of coffee workers and to foster a socially conscious community with cause-supporting coffees.

Bottom Line
A juicy, fruit-forward, floral-toned Costa Rica natural that evokes the tropics with its sweet-tart profile — think kiwi, lychee, pikake flower — and satiating chocolaty-sweet cup.
