Blind Assessment
Crisply sweet-tart, cocoa-toned. Cocoa nib, pomegranate, freesia, almond butter, orange zest in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with brisk acidity; lightly satiny mouthfeel. Cocoa-and nut-toned finish with undertones of orange zest.
Notes
Produced by the Stille family entirely of the Gesha (also spelled Geisha) variety of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). Monarch Coffee is an award-winning coffee farm and specialty roaster of 100% estate-grown Kona coffee on the Big Island of Hawai’i. Visit www.monarchcoffee.com for more information.
Bottom Line
An inviting, straightforward Kona Gesha cup, balanced and bright, with pleasing suggestions of tart fruit and spicy florals.
