Blind Assessment
Rich-toned, savory-sweet. Date, tamarind, rose hips, and magnolia, pink grapefruit zest in aroma and cup. Balanced, citrusy acidity; silky, buoyant mouthfeel. Resonant finish consolidated to tamarind and magnolia notes.
Notes
Produced by nearly 5,000 smallholding members of the Mutheka Farmers Cooperative Society and Kenya Cooperative Coffee Exporters (KCCE), from trees of the SL28, SL32 and Ruiru 11 varieties of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Utopian Coffee is a specialty roaster based in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Visit www.utopiancoffee.com for more information.
Bottom Line
Savory-sweet and vibrant, with a floral throughline typical of classic Nyeri coffees — a twist of tamarind like fruit pleasingly complicates the cup.
