Blind Assessment
Brightly sweet-tart, fruit-toned. Apricot, dark chocolate, pistachio butter, bay leaf, blood orange in aroma and cup. High-toned and sweet with juicy acidity; viscous, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Resonant, flavor-laden finish consolidates to dark chocolate and pistachio notes.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of local heirloom varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). 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
A nuanced, fruit-driven washed Ethiopia cup that’s deep, complex and juicy-sweet.
