Blind Assessment
Sweetly and gently pungent. Peach, melon, cocoa, fir, a hint of grapefruity citrus in aroma and cup. Rich, balanced acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Sweetly tart, citrusy finish.
Notes
Coffees from the northern part of the Indonesian island of Sumatra are admired for their complex earth, fruit and aromatic wood notes that result largely from unorthodox fruit removal and drying practices called “wet hulling.” This coffee is a refined example of the type. Visit
Who Should Drink It
Non-gardening Sumatra drinkers. A still pungent but rather bright version of the classic Sumatra profile, with only a discreet hint of the usual musty earth.
