Blind Assessment: Delicate, sweetly bright, refreshing. Fresh-cut fir, almond-like nut and the pure, sweetly tart flavor of coffee fruit in aroma and cup. Softly brisk, floral-toned acidity; silky to lightly syrupy mouthfeel. A hint of cocoa that emerges in the cup quietly dominates a crisply sweet finish.

Notes: Peaberries result when the coffee fruit develops only a single, oval bean rather than the usual pair of flat-sided beans. Peaberries produce a somewhat different (often better) cup than normal beans from the same crop, from which they may or may not be separated during grading. Hula Daddy is a boutique coffee farm and mill located near the southern end of the Kona growing district. Visit www.huladaddy.com or call 888-553-2339 for more information.

Who Should Drink It: Refreshing and exceptional in its delicate complexity, an orchard-like purity that could contrast with a rich dessert or brighten a light lunch. Don’t think about putting anything into it except your lips.
