Blind Assessment
Bright, balanced, high-toned. Notes of pink grapefruit zest, magnolia, pear, vanilla and cocoa nib in aroma and cup. Lively, citrus-forward acidity; silky, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. The finish is sweet and citrusy with lingering vanilla and cocoa nib depth.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of the Hawaiian Typica and Red Catuai varieties of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Paradise prides itself on quality and freshness, craft-roasting coffees in small batches only after orders are placed. Visit www.paradiseroasters.com or call 808-498-4048 for more information.
Bottom Line
An elegant Ka‘ū Typica-Catuai that highlights the region’s brightness and floral lift, anchored by gentle vanilla and cocoa nib depth.
