Blind Assessment

The aroma is rich and rather deep with apple, pipe tobacco and semi-sweet chocolate notes. In the cup lively when hot, but almost immediately contracts in sensory range, turning monotoned and heavy, though still with pleasant allusions to the dry apple and chocolate notes.

Notes

This normally fine and subtle Kona may represent last year's crop, which would account for this sample?s uncharacteristic heaviness.

Who Should Drink It

A full body and a rather blunt heaviness may make this a good Kona for those who like to add sweetener and whitener to the cup.
