Blind Assessment

Flowers, white wine and tangerine-like citrus soften toward a cocoaish dark chocolate in aroma and cup. Delicately bright, wine-like acidity, silky mouthfeel. Gently tart, chocolate-toned finish.

Notes

Produced from trees of the Caturra and Catuai varieties on award-winning Finca Santa Lucia by farmer Ricardo Perez Barrantes. Most likely a touch of fruit pulp was allowed to dry on the beans, accounting for a delicately clean fruit and wine-like cup character. Formerly Coffee Klatch, Klatch Coffee is an award-winning small-batch roasting company based in the Los Angeles area whose resident barista and trainer, Heather Perry, is a former United States Barista Champion. Visit www.klatchroasting.com or call 877-455-2824 for more information.

Who Should Drink It

Lovers of balanced, delicately complex white table wines.
