Blind Assessment

Gently fruit-forward, sweetly nut-toned. Rice candy, Nutella, fresh-cut fir, freesia-like flowers, lemon balm in aroma and cup. Richly sweet structure with brisk acidity; plush, creamy mouthfeel. Long, sweet, nutty finish consolidates to notes of hazelnut and fir.

Notes

Produced by smallholding members of the Flor de Dalia Cooperative entirely of the Caturra variety of Arabica, and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). Certified Fair Trade. Founded in 1995 by Brooke McDonnell and Helen Russell, Equator Coffees operates retail stores in the San Francisco Bay Area and southern California and provides coffee to hundreds of wholesale accounts. Visit www.equatorcoffees.com or call 800-809-7687 for more information.

Bottom Line

A refreshing, very sweet natural-processed Nicaragua cup with pretty citrus and spicy floral notes.
