Blind Assessment
Soft, deep, pungent. Dark chocolate, hazelnut, apricot/plum, a hint of heady night-blooming flowers in aroma and cup. Rich, gently drying acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Hints of chocolate, hazelnut and apricot/plum all carry into a quietly rich finish.
Notes
This coffee is certified organically grown. Although the words “Fair Trade” appear as well on the label of the attractive 12-ounce valve-topped can, the trade-marked seal of Fair Trade USA does not. Fondo Paez is a cooperative of 550 farmers from the indigenous Paez people of central Colombia. Wonderstate Coffee, formerly Kickapoo Coffee, is an award-winning roaster based in rural Wisconsin known for their commitment to guaranteeing higher pay for farmers and being the country’s first 100% solar powered roastery.
