Blind Assessment

Deeply floral, richly perfumed. Tea rose, guava, cocoa nib, myrrh, graphite in aroma and cup. Winy acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. Flavor-laden finish centered around notes of tea rose, guava and cocoa nib.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of local landrace varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying), with the addition of select enzymes added to the fermentation. 1980 Cafe is a Tainan City, Taiwan-based specialty coffee roaster.

Bottom Line

An exceptionally floral-toned, washed Guji with tropical fruit and myrrh-like impulses — evocative, lush, resonant.
