Blind Assessment

Richly aromatic, sweetly tart. Guava, young ginger, maraschino cherry, chocolate syrup, lemon-thyme in aroma and cup. Juicy, sparkling acidity; plush, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. Very long, flavor-saturated, tropical-leaning finish.

Notes

A special lot called “El Cañal” produced by Doña Francisca and Oscar Chacon of Finca Las Lajas, entirely of the Villa Sarchi variety of Arabica, and processed by a proprietary “double diamond” method, which includes whole-fruit anaerobic fermentation. Magnolia Coffee is a Charlotte, North Carolina-based specialty roaster whose mission is to use sustainably sourced coffees to make a difference in the lives of coffee workers and to foster a socially conscious community with cause-supporting coffees.

Bottom Line

A classic Costa Rica variety, Villa Sarchi, processed by a proprietary anaerobic method that concentrates all this coffee’s wide-ranging notes into a veritable flavor bomb.
