Blind Assessment
Richly sweet-savory, cocoa-toned. Cocoa nib, pluot, brown sugar, candycap mushroom, Meyer lemon zest in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with high-toned acidity; plush, syrupy mouthfeel. The resonant finish centers around notes of cocoa nib, pluot, and lemon zest.
Notes
Produced by Miles Mayne of Silver Cloud Farm entirely of the Red Caturra variety of Arabica and processed by the washed method. Founded by roaster Heather Brisson-Lutz in 2018, Origin Coffee Roasters highlights the origin of each carefully selected coffee with a roast profile that highlights the specific characteristics of the green.

Bottom Line
An umami undercurrent (think candycap mushroom) deepens this already rich, stone fruit- and cocoa-driven cup.
