Blind Assessment
Sweetly bright, rich-toned. Baking chocolate, agave syrup, violet, hazelnut, tangerine in aroma and cup. Balanced, bright acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. The pleasing finish centers around notes of baking chocolate and hazelnut.
Notes
Produced by Rene Contreras on the family farm in Monte Verde and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried).
