Blind Assessment

Deeply sweet, harmoniously layered. Blackberry, dried mango, cocoa powder, vanilla bean, cedar in aroma and cup. Bright, balanced acidity; crisp, velvety body. The finish resonates with notes of blackberry and cocoa powder.

Notes

Produced by Juan Peña of Hacienda La Papaya, entirely of the Typica variety of Arabica, and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). Big Shoulders Coffee is a Chicago roaster dedicated to a fresh-roasted, honest approach that lets great coffee speak for itself.  Visit www.bigshoulderscoffee.com or call 312-846-1439 for more information.  

Bottom Line

A nicely executed Ecuador natural — fruit-saturated and grounded by cocoa and subtle spice notes throughout the profile.
