Blind Assessment

Richly sweet, fruit-forward. Dried apricot, cocoa nib, star jasmine, almond, maple syrup in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with bright, juicy acidity; crisp, syrupy mouthfeel. Long, lingering finish that centers on dried apricot and cocoa notes, supported by cedar-like wood.

Notes

Rainforest Alliance-certified. Produced by the Herrera brothers of Granja La Esperanza at Cerro Azul Farm, entirely of the celebrated Geisha variety of Arabica and processed by the honey method (skins are removed but at least some of the sticky fruit flesh is allowed to dry on the beans). 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. Visit www.jbccoffeeroasters.com or call 608-256-5282 for more information.

Bottom Line

Deep, floral and fruit-driven, with notes of dried stone fruit, spice-toned flowers, and rich cocoa.
