Blind Assessment
Richly floral, fruit-toned, balanced. Passion fruit, pink peppercorn, star jasmine, cocoa nib, sandalwood in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with vibrant acidity; syrupy, viscous mouthfeel. The spicy-floral finish leads with notes of star jasmine and cocoa nib.
Notes
This exceptional coffee was selected as the No. 5 coffee on Coffee Review’s list of the Top 30 Coffees of 2022. Produced by Aida Batlle at La Florida Farm from trees of the Bourbon and Pacas varieties of Arabica, and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit).
