Blind Assessment

Spectacularly and complexly sweet: honey, lilac-like flowers, candied orange, balanced by a crisp roasted cocoa-nib-like chocolate. Delicate but rich acidity; round, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Very sweet, long, flavor-saturated finish.

Notes

The Nanno Challa Cooperative of small-holding farmers grows heirloom varieties of Arabica native to the region, varieties noted for their often intense floral and citrus character. Processed by the wet or “washed” method and roasted at PT’s Coffee, where the motto is “without the love, it’s just coffee.” Visit www.ptscoffee.com or call 888-678-5282 for more information.

Who Should Drink It

Exhilaratingly exotic yet accessible, a coffee that should please both casual coffee drinkers and aficionados. Absolutely do not ruin this coffee with sweetener; should be very nice iced.
