Organization: Fö & Sons, Oregon Coffee: Kabal Dark Reviewed: July 2009 Overall Rating: 99 points
Aroma: 4 Acidity: 5 Body: 7 Flavor: 10 Aftertaste: 6 Roast (Agtron): Dark (64/12) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Origin: That one place
Notes: "Say fruit ten times," Andy reports, and then he does, mainly variations of grapefruit, apricot and melon with green apple and Bartlett pear thrown in for the finish. For Ken that entire nuance is wrapped up in the extraordinary, singular explosion of cedary, pungently sweet berry, the quintessential Bourbon character. The acidity is enveloped in sweetness; in Andy's colorful language it "startles and snuggles all at once." For mouthfeel Andy suggests "crème fraéche Meyer lemon chiffon"; Ken sticks with a pedestrian "syrupy." Ken awarded a perfect 10 to the long, balanced, deeply flavor-saturated finish.
