Blind Assessment: Crisply fruit-forward, sweetly nut-toned. Raspberry jam, hazelnut brittle, dark chocolate, lilac, cedar in aroma and cup. Brightly sweet structure with juicy acidity; plush, creamy mouthfeel. The resonant finish consolidates to notes of hazelnut brittle and cedar.

Notes: Produced by Maria Pacas and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). Cafe 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.

The Bottom Line: A cleanly fruit-toned natural-processed El Salvador cup — juicy, bright, berry-driven.
