Blind Assessment

Delicately and sweetly pungent. Jasmine, lemon zest, roasted cacao nib, frankincense, butterscotch in aroma and cup. Vibrant, lyrical acidity; satiny-smooth mouthfeel. The short finish leads with frankincense and cocoa, rounding to butterscotch in the long.

Notes

The Yirgacheffe region produces distinctive coffees from traditional varieties of Arabica long grown in the area. This is a “natural” or dry-processed version, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or “washed” coffees. Kakalove Café is a nano-roaster located in the small city of Chia-Yi in Taiwan that strives to procure and roast the finest quality coffee.

Bottom Line

An inviting Yirgacheffe with exotic spice and floral notes grounded in rich cocoa tones.
