Blind Assessment
Rich, cedar-rounded and sweetly nutty. Candied blood orange, cocoa powder, wisteria and baked apple in aroma and cup. Plump, juicy acidity; smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Crisp, spicy, cocoa-toned short finish; floral notes persist far into the long.
Notes
Produced at Finca El Aguila in El Salvador from trees of the SL-28 variety of Arabica, the variety that produces the finest coffees of Kenya. The farm is owned by Mauricio Ariz and his sons, who are fourth- and fifth-generation growers. JBC Coffee Roasters was founded in 1994 as Johnson Brothers Coffee Roasters and is a family-owned specialty coffee roastery located in Madison, Wisconsin. 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.
