Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Intricately floral-toned, fruity. Cherry blossom, dried mango, Meyer lemon zest, hazelnut, oregano oil in aroma and small cup. Bright structure with juicy, velvety mouthfeel; sweetly nutty, resonant finish. In cappuccino-scaled milk, there’s a layered, harmonious complexity with leading notes of cherry blossom and dried mango.

Bottom Line
An excitingly original espresso blend that foregrounds sweet florals and tropical fruit in equal measure, held together by sweet nut and citrus tones — equally compelling in the straight shot and in cappuccino format.
