Blind Assessment
Deeply sweet-savory, intricate, inviting. Black currant, cocoa nib, lemon verbena, fresh-cut oak, Nutella in aroma and cup. Balanced, sweetly tart structure with juicy-bright acidity; plush, satiny mouthfeel. The finish consolidates to lasting black currant and Nutella notes.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers surrounding the Karatina Coffee Factory from trees of the Ruiru 11, SL28 and Batian varieties of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). Committed to sourcing, roasting and brewing the finest coffees, Temple features coffee from distinguished single estates and cooperatives around the world.

Bottom Line
A classic Kenya cup: rich, sweetly savory, bright, juicy, deep.
