Blind Assessment

Sweet, balanced, tropical-fruit leaning. Mango, lavender, dark chocolate, candied walnut, cedar in aroma and cup. Round, resonant in structure, crisply sweet with a savory hint. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Candied walnut and dark chocolate in a rich, layered finish.

Notes

Produced by Arturo Aguirre entirely of the celebrated Kenyan SL28 variety of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Founded in 1995 by Brooke McDonnell and Helen Russell, Equator Coffees operates retail stores in the San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California and provides coffee to hundreds of wholesale accounts.

Bottom Line

A juicy mango of a cup, sweet, lightly savory-resiny, with candied walnut and chocolate complication.
