Blind Assessment

Richly sweet, gently tart. Wisteria, pomegranate, fresh-cut fir, brown sugar, grapefruit zest in aroma and cup. Brisk acidity; very full, satiny mouthfeel. The finish consolidates to notes of fir, brown sugar and grapefruit zest.

Notes

Produced from trees of the rare Ethiopia-derived botanical variety Gesha (also Geisha) by Adam and Rachel Overton. With its generally elongated beans and distinctive floral and crisp, often chocolaty cup, the Gesha variety continues to distinguish itself as one of the world’s most unique coffees. Although the Gesha variety originated in Ethiopia, it was “discovered” by the coffee world in 2004 growing in Boquete, Panama, and Panama continues to dominate the expanding world of Gesha. This particular version, however, is the outcome of efforts to commercialize Gesha in the region from which it originally came. It is processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). VERYTIME is a specialty nano-roaster based in Taoyuan, Taiwan. Visit www.verytime.com.tw/ for more information.  

Bottom Line

A delicately tart, subtly aromatic natural Ethiopia Geisha cup, juicy and inviting.
