Blind Assessment
Richly sweet, rounded and fruit-forward. Black cherry, baked pear, milk chocolate, almond brittle and orange blossom in aroma and cup. Gently brisk acidity; plush, creamy mouthfeel. The finish is sweet and persistent, with black cherry, milk chocolate and almond brittle.

Bottom Line
A generous Costa Rica natural that layers notes of ripe stone and tree fruit, chocolate and nut-toned sweetness with subtle floral lift in a plush, balanced cup.
