Blind Assessment

Richly floral and aromatic. Narcissus, black currant, cocoa nib, thyme, maple syrup in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with bright, juicy acidity; full, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. The finish leads with notes of narcissus and black currant with undertones of cocoa nib.

Notes

Produced by Luis Wicho Valdes of Finca Santa Isabel exclusively from trees of the Caturra variety of Arabica and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). El Gran Cafe is a coffee shop located in the heart of Antigua, Guatemala whose mission is to roast and serve organic-certified coffees produced at its own Finca La Esperanza just outside of town. Featured in El Gran Cafe’s lineup are also coffees from friends and neighbors in the region, along with award-winning and exceptional coffees from other regions of Guatemala.

Bottom Line

A multi-layered, brightly sweet washed Guatemala cup with deep floral and high-toned berry notes.
