Blind Assessment
Sweet, brightly herb- and fragrantly floral-toned. Goji berry, cacao-nib, narcissus, fresh-cut cedar in aroma and cup. Sweet, delicately savory structure; satiny mouthfeel. Crisp, berryish, cocoa-toned finish.
Notes
Produced entirely from trees of the Caturra variety of Arabica and processed by the natural (dried in the whole fruit) method at Finca Clara in a coffee-growing region designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Decaffeinated in Colombia by the ethyl acetate (EA) method. Kakalove Café is a nano-roaster located in the small city of Chia-Yi in Taiwan that strives to procure and roast the finest quality coffee.

Bottom Line
Complex herb-toned flowers and savory-sweet structure drive an intriguing original decaf cup.
