Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Distinctive but extraordinarily complete and balanced in structure. Dark chocolate, black cherry, violet, oak in aroma and small cup. Full, nectar-like mouthfeel; sweet, violet-toned finish. Big, rich presence in three parts milk: floral chocolate and a buttery nut note.

Who Should Drink It
An espresso both classic in structure and distinctively Central African in its sweet, floral- and berry-toned pungency.
