Blind Assessment
Richly sweet-savory, deep-toned. Date, hop flowers, maple syrup, cedar, cocoa nib in aroma and cup. Bittersweet structure with brisk acidity; full, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Finish consolidates to cocoa-toned date in the short and cedar-like aromatic wood notes in the long.
Notes
Despite grower discontent and urban encroachment on prime coffee lands, Kenya continues to produce some of the world’s most elegant and distinctive coffees. Quartet Kaffe is an artisan roastery in Taiwan founded in 2018, dedicated to pursuing coffee performance art and offering unique specialty coffee.

Bottom Line
A developed medium roast emphasizes this Kenya’s depth and amplifies its rich dried fruit and cocoa notes.
