Blind Assessment

Crisp, gently fruit-toned. Raspberry jam, baking chocolate, magnolia, almond, cedar in aroma and cup. Sweet structure with round acidity; velvety-smooth mouthfeel. Quiet, chocolaty and nut-driven finish.

Notes

This exceptional coffee was selected as the No. 22 coffee on Coffee Review’s list of the Top 30 Coffees of 2020.  Certified organic. Produced by Eddy Ramirez at Ramirez Estate and processed by the red honey method, meaning that some fruit flesh or “honey” was allowed to adhere to the beans during drying. Café Kreyol is a roaster in Manassas, Virginia with the mission of creating sustainable employment by way of specialty coffee. Visit www.cafekreyol.com or call 571-719-7018 for more information.

Bottom Line

A delicate red-honey processed coffee from the Dominican Republic — a percentage of sales is allocated by the farm to improve education in the farm’s region.
