Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Berry- and flower-driven, intricately sweet-tart, wildly aromatic. Ripe raspberry, wisteria, toffee, sandalwood, dark chocolate in aroma and small cup. Viscous, syrupy mouthfeel; bright, berry-toned finish. In three parts milk, a lot like eating raspberry trifle laced with chocolate.
Notes
This exceptional coffee was selected as the No. 7 coffee on Coffee Review’s list of the Top 30 Coffees of 2020. Produced by smallholding members of the Rungeto Farmers' Cooperative Society of the SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11 and Batian varieties of Arabica.

Bottom Line
An exceptional single-origin Kenya espresso, balanced and bright in the straight shot and decadently rich and floral in milk.
