Blind Assessment
Richly sweet-savory. Red currant, narcissus, tamarind, cedar, brown sugar in aroma and cup. Bittersweet structure with bright acidity; crisp, velvety mouthfeel. Sweetly tart finish leads with tamarind notes, supported by narcissus and cedar.
Notes
Produced by smallholding members of the Gikanda Cooperative, from trees of the SL28 and SL34 varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Lu’s Coffee is a specialty coffee roaster based in New Taipei City, Taiwan. Visit https://shopee.tw/death963 for more information.
Bottom Line
A deep-toned, sweetly savory Kenya cup with inviting floral notes and a complex bittersweet structure.
