Blind Assessment

Intense, pungent, arresting. Honey, sweetly tart berry, spicy tea rose, roasted cacao nib in aroma and cup. Softly bright, complexly expressed acidity; syrupy mouthfeel. The berry note dominates in a deep, bittersweet finish.

Those who enjoy the peculiar intensity of certain Kenya coffees, in which a very sweet yet dry berry note dominates in a profile simultaneously juicy and tartly brisk.
