Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Intense, multidimensional citrus in the aromatics: layered suggestions of grapefruit, lemon, lime. Light but buoyant mouthfeel. Lively in the short cup: cranberry, lime zest, chocolate and cedar carry into a dryish finish. Balanced and sweet in two parts milk: more sweet citrus and a hint of toasted almond.

Grown by the Gakuyu Farmers Cooperative, this coffee consists entirely of the admired Bourbon-derived hybrid SL 28.JBC Coffee Roasters (formerly Johnson Brothers Coffee Roasters) is a distinguished small-batch roasting company.

Who Should Drink It
Those who appreciate bright, somewhat dry, white table wines. Also an interesting change of pace for those who take their espresso with frothed milk; carries its distinctive profile with some authority even into tallish milk.
