Blind Assessment
Rich, deep, intense, with the dry fruit robustness of a cabernet and the tartly sweet black currant notes so cherished by lovers of Kenya. In the finish swoons into a ringing, almost sugary sweetness.
Notes

As the millennium ends Kenya remains the consensus finest origin of coffee 's 600-or-so years delighting human faculties. This Kenya is the deep, red-wine-toned fruit kind.
Who Should Drink It
Refined yet sturdy, surprising yet inevitable, a treasure from the old millennium and an afterdinner coffee to usher in the new.
