Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Watermelon, Nutella, freesia-like flowers, cedar, brown sugar in aroma and small cup. Lightly satiny mouthfeel; floral-toned finish with chocolate and hazelnut undertones. Rich and deep in cappuccino-scaled milk with notes of Nutella and freesia carrying into a long finish.
