Blind Assessment
Intense, complex, unorthodox: cherry and blueberry, dark chocolate, moist fresh-fallen leaves, violet-like flowers in aroma and cup. Rich, backgrounded acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. Flavor-saturated, salty-sweet finish. The striking aromatics of this coffee were clearest in the superb aroma.

Who Should Drink It
Lovers of Sumatras and other earthy/fruity coffees. This is a romance coffee: exotic, challenging, exhilarating in its richly stated imperfections.
