Blind Assessment

Exuberantly aromatic and deeply layered, with notes of passion fruit, raspberry jam, lilac, dark chocolate, and blood orange. Vibrant, juicy acidity enlivens a plush, syrupy body, while the extended natural fermentation contributes concentrated tropical fruit and floral complexity without overwhelming the coffee's balance. The finish is exceptionally long, echoing sweet berries, citrus, and cocoa.
