Blind Assessment
Bright, balanced, juicy. Sweet-tarts candy, cocoa powder, freesia, sugarcane, cedar in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart, malic (apple-like) acidity; plush, syrupy mouthfeel. Delicately sweet, gently tart finish.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). Mortem Labs is a Norfolk, Virginia roastery that offers small-batch blends and select single-origin coffees. Visit www.mortem-labs.com for more information.
Bottom Line
An unusual Sumatra in that it’s natural-processed (as opposed to wet-hulled), which emphasizes the fruit and floral tones inherent in the coffee.
