Blind Assessment
Juicy-sweet, high-toned, multi-layered. Strawberry guava, star jasmine, hazelnut, amber, cocoa nib in aroma and cup. Brightly sweet-tart structure with vibrant acidity; lively, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Fruit- and floral-toned finish.
Notes
Produced on K&J Farm in the Ka’u growing region from trees of the Yellow Bourbon variety of Arabica and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). Big Island Coffee is an award-winning coffee roaster operated with hands-on passion by Kelleigh Stewart and Brandon von Damitz. Visit www.bigislandcoffeeroasters.com for more information.
Bottom Line
An exceptional Yellow Bourbon grown in the Ka’u region of the Big Island of Hawai’i: expressive, nuanced, complex, juicy.
