Blind Assessment: Balanced, sweetly savory. Narcissus, date, orange zest, tamarind, cedar in aroma and cup. Sweet structure with brisk acidity; full, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. The finish leads with notes of tamarind, supported by orange zest and cedar.

Notes: Despite challenges ranging from unclear government coffee policy and urban encroachment on prime coffee lands to chronically unstable weather, the famed Kenya coffee auction system and its participating cooperatives continue to produce some of the world’s most elegant and distinctive coffees.
