Blind Assessment
Deeply rich, sweet-toned. Caramel, baking chocolate, cane sugar, red plum, oak in aroma and cup. Sweet structure with gentle, round acidity; very full, syrupy mouthfeel. Crisply chocolaty, caramel-toned finish.
Notes
Produced by Homer Alarcón Gayoso entirely of the admired Gesha (also spelled “Geisha”) variety of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). The company name Amavida combines the Spanish words for love and life, reflecting Amavida’s multifaceted commitment to fairness and fine coffee.

Bottom Line
A quietly confident, exceptionally sweet washed Peru Gesha cup with leading notes of caramel and stone fruit.
