Blind Assessment

Spice-toned, richly sweet, deeply savory. White peach, fine musk, freesia, almond, myrrh in aroma and cup. Delicate, sweet-savory structure, with bright, juicy acidity. The resonant, richly drying finish leads with white peach and musk in the short, rounding to notes of sweet almond with a hint of myrrh in the long.

Notes

Bottom Line

A pretty Kenya cup with bright notes of stone fruit and spicy florals throughout, supported by an undercurrent of rich, aromatic myrrh.
