Blind Assessment

Richly sweet-savory. Red currant, dark chocolate, thyme, lime zest, coconut in aroma and cup. Very sweet, also very tart acidity (intense, phosphoric); plush, syrupy mouthfeel. Intensely sweet-savory, long-lingering finish.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of the SL28 and SL34 varieties of Arabica, and processed at the Maganjo mill by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). Kakalove Café is a nano-roaster located in the small city of Chia-Yi in Taiwan that strives to procure and roast the finest quality coffee.

Bottom Line

A recognizably Kenyan coffee with its red currant nose and floral-savory acidity — wide-ranging and deeply attractive.
