Blind Assessment

Deeply sweet, fruit-driven. Black currant, pink grapefruit, dusky rose, baking chocolate, sorghum in aroma and cup. Juicy-bright acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. Resonant, long finish, emphasizing black currant and citrus brightness layered over a crisply chocolaty undercurrent.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of the SL28, Ruiru 11 and K7 varieties of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Brocade Coffee is a Taiwan-based specialty roaster. Visit Brocade Coffee Roasters’ Facebook page for more information.

Bottom Line

Juicy and fruit-saturated, with hallmark black currant and complex citrus notes anchored by a satisfying chocolate depth.
