Blind Assessment

Brightly sweet, tropical and confectionary. Goldenberry, pineapple, mandarin, vanilla bean and milk chocolate in aroma and cup. Gently juicy acidity; plush, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. The finish is sweet and persistent, with goldenberry, vanilla bean and milk chocolate notes.

Notes

Produced by Juan Puerta of Finca La Sirena, entirely of the Castillo variety of Arabica, and processed by a washed cofermentation process with the addition of uchuva (goldenberry, glucose and vanilla) before drying. Royal Flamingo is a Columbus, Ohio-based specialty coffee roaster. Visit www.royalflamingocoffee.com for more information.

Bottom Line

A playful Colombia coferment in which tart goldenberry and creamy vanilla give the cup a distinctive sweet-tart, dessert-like character without obscuring its innate structure.
