Blind Assessment
Crisply sweet, deeply nut-toned. Red grape, pistachio, lemon verbena, cedar, baking chocolate in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned structure with balanced acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. The finish consolidates to red grape and pistachio.
Notes
Produced by Eduardo Cabrera of Finca San José Del Lago, entirely of the Bourbon variety of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.

Bottom Line
This richly nutty, crisply chocolaty Guatemala cup is carried by its deft balance, both in the nose and in the cup.
