Blind Assessment
Sweet, balanced. Peach, rye whisky, redwood, brown sugar in aroma and cup. Gently crisp acidity; very lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Peach and redwood in particular carry into a sweet though drying finish.
Notes
This is a refined example of a dry-processed or "natural" coffee, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or "washed" coffees. Owned and developed by Graciano Cruz, Los Lajones was the first organic-certified farm in Panama and is operated with genuine sensitivity to its highland cloud forest environment. Temple Coffee is a quality-focused retail and wholesale specialty roaster active in Sacramento, California since 2005. Committed to sourcing, roasting and brewing the finest coffees, Temple features coffee from distinguished single estates and cooperatives around the world.

Who Should Drink It
