Blind Assessment
Sweet, opulently chocolate-toned fruit is turned pleasantly bittersweet by the roast. Full bodied and roundly pungent.
Notes
From the large, sophisticated Kauai coffee farm near the resort area of Poipu. Peaberries result when the coffee fruit develops a single, oval bean rather than the usual pair of flat-sided beans. This peaberry produced the best cup of the five samples submitted by Kauai Coffee. Visit
Who Should Drink It
Those many coffee drinkers who prefer a sweet, low-acid cup overlaid with bitter roasty tones. Very pleasant with milk.
