Blind Assessment
Intense, delicately fruit-forward. Wild strawberry, rum, gardenia, dark chocolate, a hint of mustard seed in aroma and cup. Balanced, quiet acidity; plush, fudgy mouthfeel. Chocolate and rum carry from the short finish into a deep, lingering long.
Notes
Produced entirely of trees from the Catuai variety of Arabica by Roberto Brenes of Auromar Estate. This is a dry-processed or “natural” coffee, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or “washed” coffees. Dragonfly Coffee is a Boulder, Colorado-based micro-roaster that produces high-quality coffees and supports worthy causes.

Bottom Line
A pretty cup from the respected Catuai variety of Arabica:chocolaty and floral, with a discreet, rogue hint of rum-toned sweet ferment.
