Blind Assessment

Spice-toned, fruit-driven. Dried raspberry, cocoa powder, lemon verbena, cedar, agave syrup in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with brisk acidity; full, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Fruit-toned finish with notes of dried raspberry and cocoa undertones.

Notes

Produced at Hala Tree farm entirely of the Typica variety of Arabica and processed by the natural anaerobic method. Hala Tree Coffee is a family-owned coffee farm in the heart of the Kona coffee belt, overlooking historic Kealakekua Bay. The 100% Kona Coffee produced on this USDA organic-certified property is processed and roasted on site to ensure quality. For more information, visit www.halatreecoffee.com.

Bottom Line

An experimentally processed, cleanly sweet-tart Kona Typica with distinct raspberry and cocoa notes.
