Blind Assessment

Provocative in structure, richly sweet-savory, tangy. Pineapple kefir, vanilla, cocoa nib, aromatic orchid, fresh-cut fir in aroma and cup. Sweet-savory structure with high-toned acidity; lightly syrupy, very viscous mouthfeel. The finish consolidates to notes of vanilla, cocoa and tangy pineapple.

Notes

Produced by Abu Coffee entirely of the Geisha variety of Arabica and processed by the anaerobic slow dry (ASD) natural method. Kakalove Café is a nano-roaster located in the small city of Chia-Yi in Taiwan that strives to procure and roast the finest quality coffee.

Bottom Line

An unusual aroma and flavor profile, and a very successful one — dessert-like and savory-tart-leaning (think fresh-made yogurt) with nuanced complexity, concentration and balance.
