Blind Assessment

High-toned, enticingly sweet. Black cherry, narcissus, cashew butter, lemon verbena, juniper bark in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with bright acidity; crisp, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. The finish leads with notes of black cherry and lemon verbena, rounding to creamy cashew in the long.

Notes

 Produced by Josué Morales of Finca El Potrero from trees of the Sarchimor and Anacafé 14 varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). El Gran Cafe is a coffee shop located in the heart of Antigua, Guatemala whose mission is to roast and serve organic-certified coffees produced at its own Finca La Esperanza and Finca El Pintado just outside of town.

Bottom Line

A bright, balanced, juicy Guatemala cup driven by dark stone fruit, spicy floral and sweet nut notes.
