Blind Assessment: Complex, richly sweet, fruit-toned. Apricot, orange blossom, caramel, cocoa powder, almond in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with pert acidity; very full, syrupy mouthfeel. Finish consolidates to caramel-toned apricot and almond.

Notes: Produced by Minor Esquival Picado at Finca La Pastora from trees of the Caturra, Catuai and Typica varieties of Arabica and processed by the washed method.
