Blind Assessment: Evaluated as espresso. Richly sweet-tart. Pomegranate, dark chocolate, narcissus, hazelnut, cedar in aroma and small cup. Satiny-smooth mouthfeel; fruit-driven, chocolaty finish. In three parts milk the fruit rounds and softens and chocolate notes are foregrounded.

Notes: Produced at Fazenda Recreio and comprised entirely of the Yellow Bourbon variety of Arabica processed by the natural method. Plat Coffee is a specialty roaster and café in Hong Kong. For more information, visit https://www.platcoffee.com/.

The Bottom Line : An inviting single-origin (and single-variety) espresso from Brazil characterized by pomegranate-like fruit and deep chocolate.
