Blind Assessment
Delicate but rich. Distinct milk chocolate notes and hints of butter and apricot-like fruit in aroma and cup; a suggestion of earth in the cup. The chocolate carries into a clean, sweet-toned finish.
Notes
This version of the ancient Mocha-Java blend combines a genuine Java from the government estates of East Java with a delicate wet-processed Yirgacheffe from Ethiopia.

Who Should Drink It
A mildly earth-toned Java and a delicately sweet Yirgacheffe net a surprisingly distinct, apricot-toned chocolate sensation in this elegant version of the Mocha-Java blend.
