Blind Assessment

Delicately sweet, intricate. Butterscotch, almond butter, orange zest, vanilla, honeydew melon in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart, quietly balanced acidity; full, satiny mouthfeel. The gently drying finish consolidates around almond and butterscotch.

Notes

Produced by Jose Antonio Salaverria of Finca San Francisco from trees of the Bourbon, Catuai and Pacas varieties of Arabica. Processed by the honey method, which means that the outer skin is removed as it is in the wet or “washed” process, but at least some of the sticky fruit residue is allowed to dry on the bean and later removed by machine along with the parchment skin. Mojo Coffee is a New Orleans-based roaster specializing in ethically sourced, hand-sorted and small-batch-roasted coffees. It strives to highlight the innate sweetness and unique flavor characteristics of each coffee and focuses on ensuring consistency from seed to cup.

Bottom Line

A classic El Salvador cup: gently and sweetly tart, plush, balanced, with a rich, nut-toned butterscotch sweetness.
