Blind Assessment

Bright, richly high-toned. Lilac, frankincense, cocoa nib, pink grapefruit zest, pistachio butter in aroma and cup. Delicately sweet-tart with balanced, vibrant acidity; silky, viscous mouthfeel. Resonant, long, flavor-saturated finish.

Processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit).

Bottom Line

A quietly expressive, juicy natural-processed Guji cup characterized by sweet florals, delicate fruit notes, pervasive cocoa, and an inviting umami undercurrent.
