Blind Assessment

High-toned, delicate, confident. Star-jasmine, cocoa nib, blood orange, black sage, sandalwood in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned structure with poised and elegantly bright acidity; very smooth, silky mouthfeel. Sandalwood notes contribute resonance to the floral-toned finish.

Notes

Produced by Wilder Lasso of Bella Alejandría Farm entirely of the Gesha variety of Arabica, and processed by the washed anaerobic method, in which the fermentation step occurs in a hermetically sealed vessel before the beans are washed and dried. Mostra Coffee is a women-, minority-, veteran-, and immigrant-owned micro-roaster based in north county San Diego. For more information, visit www.mostracoffee.com.

Bottom Line

A complex, nuanced Colombia Gesha cup processed by an elaborate variation on the traditional washed method.
