Blind Assessment
Quietly and smoothly pungent. Peach, roasted cacao nib, lily, walnut in aroma and cup. Round, vibrant acidity; satiny mouthfeel. Flavor simplifies a bit in an otherwise sweet, pleasantly resonant finish.
Notes
Produced by Arokara, a large cooperative of small-holding village farmers in the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea near the town of Kainantu. “Mile High” is the name given to the A-grade offering from this co-op. Wild Goose is an artisan roaster in the southern California town of Redlands striving for “World class coffee with a worldwide conscience.” Wild Goose emphasizes its relationship-driven green coffee sourcing, and for every pound of coffee sold it purchases ten pounds of food for a local food bank, with over 750,000 pounds donated to date.
