Blind Assessment

Delicate but exhilarating. Orangy dark chocolate, sweet, wisteria-like flowers, cherry, a deepening hint of pine in aroma and cup. Buoyant, floral-toned acidity; light but distinctly silky mouthfeel. Flowers and chocolate carry into a surprisingly long, deep finish.

Notes

This coffee was produced from trees of the SL-28 variety of Arabica, a variety famous as the source for many of Kenya’s finest and most distinctive coffees. Produced by farmer Nico Valez, this Ecuador farm is now owned by his neighbors Henry and Verena Gaibor of Finca Maputo. Thirty-Thirty is a small-batch coffee roasting company located in Peoria, Illinois that is committed to sourcing the finest green coffees and to expressing the individuality and character of those coffees from the roasting process to the cup. Visit www.thirty-thirtycoffee.com or call 309-713-2983 for more information.

Who Should Drink It

Clean, delicate vivacity should please any coffee drinker, but aficionados may be particularly interested in sampling a coffee produced in Latin America from a distinctive coffee variety closely associated with East Africa.
