Blind Assessment
Intense, rather acidy aroma with vanilla-toned chocolate and fruit notes. In the cup the acidity was either sweet and lushly lively (Ken) or a touch too soft (co-cupper Rodger Owen), the flavor a bit too simple (Rodger) or intriguing in its simultaneous sensory allusions to wine and chocolate (Ken).
Notes
Certified organically grown on Finca San Cristobal, mostly from trees of the old and respected typica variety of arabica. Flying Goat Coffee is a leading boutique retail/wholesale roaster located in the wine country of northern California. Visit
