Blind Assessment: Confident, balanced, bright. Lilac, cocoa nib, red plum, sandalwood, maple syrup in aroma and cup. Richly sweet structure with juicy, vibrant acidity; very full, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. Crisp, smooth finish centered around notes of cocoa nib and sandalwood with lilac and plum undertones.
Notes: Produced at Finca Altieri entirely of the celebrated Geisha variety of Arabica and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). Le Brewlife is a specialty coffee roaster based in Taichung, Taiwan. Visit www.lebrewlife.co for more information.
The Bottom Line: A classic washed Panama Geisha cup with pretty floral and stone fruit aromatics and a rich cocoa throughline.
