Blind Assessment

Subdued, low-toned, smooth, full, round. Very little at the top of the profile, but a rich, fat fruitiness in the middle. Giddy suggestions of guava darkened toward cocoa and cherry as the cup cooled.

Notes

Subdued, low-toned, smooth, full, round. Very little at the top of the profile, but a rich, fat fruitiness in the middle. Certified organically grown and Fair Trade. From the admired Prodocoop cooperative of over 1,000 peasant farmers.

Who Should Drink It

Lovers of port, old brandy, and wide-wale corduroy. The fruit is deep, suggestive, and somehow meaty, like the flesh of ripe cherries.
