Blind Assessment
Sweetly fruit-forward. Raspberry, baker’s chocolate, brandy, narcissus-like flowers, cashew in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart acidity; Smooth, lightly velvety mouthfeel. The richly drying finish consolidates to dried raspberry and brandy in the short, baker’s chocolate in the long.
Notes
Produced Miriam Elizabeth Perez of COMSA Cooperative in Marcala, Honduras of the Bourbon, Catuai and Typica varieties of Arabica. This is a “natural” or dry-processed coffee, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or “washed” coffees. The company name Amavida combines the Spanish words for love and life, reflecting Amavida’s multifaceted commitment to fairness and fine coffee.Visit www.amavida.com or call 850-213-1965 for more information.
Bottom Line
A chocolaty cup with sweet-fermenty, brandy-like nuance throughout.
