Blind Assessment
Sweet, rich with hints of lemon and flowers, low-toned but solidly authoritative. The body is exceptional: big, smooth, mouthfilling, with impressions of cream. The rich, lemony character lingers pleasingly in the aftertaste.
Notes
Marcala is Honduras's premier coffee growing region. Coffeemaria is a boutique micro-roaster that, via its website, sells coffee roasted to order and same-day shipped.
Who Should Drink It
Its dry-yet-sweet, lemon-tart richness should make it a superb late-in-the-day or after-dinner cup.
