Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Highly aromatic and expansive. Star jasmine, bergamot, pomelo, Bing cherry and cocoa nib in aroma and small cup. Airy yet saturated mouthfeel; exceptionally long, harmonious finish. In cappuccino format, the cup unfolds slowly with layered florals and citrus sweetness and lingers long.

Notes

Produced at Finca Starmaya, entirely of the Geisha variety of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Imported by Jak International Trades Co. Ltd. GK Coffee is a nano-roastery in Yilan, Taiwan, that offers both retail and wholesale coffee. For more information, visit www.gkcoffee.com.tw or email gkcoffee2015@gmail.com.

Bottom Line

A standout (and aptly named) washed Guatemala Geisha, roasted for espresso applications, that delivers soaring florals and citrus clarity with remarkable flavor-saturation and engaging depth throughout the profile — a show-stopper.
