Blind Assessment
Delicately complex, high-toned aromatics are the glory here. Giddily fruity aroma, with distinct vanilla notes and suggestions of white wine, custardy caramel, flowers, chocolate. In the cup delicate and very sweet, with continuing floral, wine (Riesling) and semi-sweet chocolate notes. The floral delicacy carries into the slightly astringent finish. Too delicate for this world: loses some of its refreshing complexity as the cup cools.
Notes
A Supremo grade Colombia, the highest grade by bean size. Boca Java is a small-batch, custom retail/wholesale roaster that roast-dates its coffees and emphasizes freshness and quality. Visit
