Blind Assessment
Juicy, vibrant, fruit-forward. Mulberry, ginger blossom, cocoa nib, toffee, amber in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with brisk acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. Long, flavor-laden finish that fulfills the promise of the cup.
Notes
Produced by JN Farms from trees of the Red Bourbon variety of Arabica, and processed by a malolactic fermentation method designed by Miguel Meza, in which whole fruit is inoculated with both yeasts and malolactic bacteria, then fermented in anaerobic conditions for about a week before being dried in the whole fruit. Paradise prides itself on quality and freshness, craft-roasting coffees in small batches only after orders are placed. Visit www.paradiseroasters.com or call 763-433-0626 for more information.
Bottom Line
A juicy, fruity, floral-toned Ka‘ū cup processed by malolactic fermentation, a technique commonly used in wine that results in a coffee with concentrated berry and spicy floral notes.
