Blind Assessment
Berry-toned, richly floral, chocolaty. Mulberry, dark chocolate, lily, scorched oak, a hint of brandy in aroma and cup. Bittersweet with round, juicy acidity; lightly syrupy, supple mouthfeel. Long, flavor-saturated finish, crisp and sweet.
Notes
Produced at Kenya Embu Guchinda Estate from trees of the SL28 and SL34 varieties of Arabica and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Roaster Yu Chih Hao is co-founder of Fumi Coffee, a roaster in Hsinchu, Taiwan, specializing in specialty coffee and homemade desserts.

Bottom Line
A complex, rich-toned, moderately dark-roasted Kenya driven by dark berry fruit, deep chocolate, and sweet floral notes.
