Blind Assessment

Sweet, nut-toned. Hazelnut, gardenia, fresh-cut cedar, caramel, pear in aroma and cup. Crisp, delicate acidity; light, satiny mouthfeel. The richly round finish consolidates around cedar and caramel in the short; hazelnut resurfaces in the gently drying long.

Notes

Produced from trees of the Caturra and Catuai varieties of Arabica and processed by the wet or washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). Cups Espresso Cafe was founded by Janice and Dennis Cameron in 1993, and the couple has been roasting in house since 1994. Their cafe is a space where artists can present their work and patrons can enjoy fine coffees in a casual atmosphere. For more information visit www.cupsespressocafe.com.

Bottom Line

A crisp, sweetly nut-toned cup with inviting caramel notes and hints of sweet flowers.
