Blind Assessment

Intense, complex, roughly rich cup. In the aroma lush fermented fruit, moist fresh-fallen leaves and a hint of anise-like herb. In the cup the fruit ferment turns toward a minty, herb-nuanced dark chocolate or perhaps spiced apricot, with continued undercurrents of fresh earth and moist leaves. Complex, flavor-saturated finish shadowed by a very slight astringency.

Notes

This version of the ancient Mocha-Java blend combines a genuine Java from the government estates of East Java with a "natural" or dried-in-the-fruit coffee from the Harrar region of Ethiopia that closely resembles the original Yemen Mocha component of the blend.
