Blind Assessment
Richly spice-toned, citrusy-sweet. Ginger blossom, dried persimmon, Concord grape, rice candy, a hint of fennel in aroma and cup. Brightly sweet structure with juicy, vibrant acidity; lushly vibrant, creamy mouthfeel. The finish quiets to pretty notes of ginger and persimmon.
Notes
Produced by Wilton Benitez entirely of the Orange Bourbon variety of Arabica. Processed by a complex double fermentation method, in which the coffee fruit is first sterilized, then fermented anaerobically in the whole fruit in a bio-reactor with added microorganisms. After this fermentation in the whole fruit, the coffee is pulped and subjected to a second fermentation, after which the beans are sealed through the impact of hot and cold water before washing and careful drying by machine for 36 hours. 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
An exceptionally vivid coffee, both aromatically and on the palate, with focused fruit and floral notes and an especially resounding, very lush mouthfeel.
