Nyaithee

Kenya AA – Green

Roaster Location:Kenya
Roast Level:NA
Agtron:/
Review Date:March 1999
Aroma:7.0
Acidity:7.4
Body:6.4
Flavor:6.9

Blind Assessment: Pungent, full, deep-throated fruit dominates here. Several panelists called the cup balanced, which I take as praise for the way the acidity animates the profile from the inside rather than screaming off the top. Nevertheless, overall this coffee generated limited enthusiasm. "Decent," wrote one. "Not the big fruity notes, but drinkable," harrumphed another. "Lacks true East African character," complained a third.

Notes: A decent, balanced coffee dominated by pungent, full, deep-throated fruit. Drinkable. Originally reviewed by a panel as a green coffee. This Kenya AA sample is from an auction lot from a single cooperatively owned Kenya mill.
