Blind Assessment: Crisply chocolaty, nut-toned. Baking chocolate, pink grapefruit zest, hazelnut brittle, thyme, agave syrup in aroma and cup. Bittersweet structure with brisk acidity; smooth, satiny mouthfeel. Quiet, nut-driven finish with hints of baking chocolate.
Notes: Produced by 664 smallholding women farmers of the ASPROCDEGUA Producer's Association, from trees of the Bourbon, Caturra, Catuai and Pache varieties of Arabica, and processed by the washed method. Founded in 2011, Yellow Brick Coffee is a specialty roaster and cafe in Tucson, Arizona. Visit www.yellowbrickcoffee.com for more information.
The Bottom Line: A balanced, inviting women-farmed Guatemala cup.
