Blind Assessment

Blossomy, buoyant, complex. Orange blossom, bergamot, roasted cocoa nib, lemon verbena in aroma and cup. Sweetly bright and balanced in structure; full and syrupy in mouthfeel. Orange blossom and bergamot carry into a light-footed finish.

Notes

Produced by Wilton Benitez at La Macarena farm entirely of the Red Bourbon variety of Arabica, and processed by a complexly detailed version of the double-anaerobic method (sealed-tank fermentation of the whole fruit with the addition of yeast strains), which includes sterilizing the cherries with ozone gas and ultraviolet light. Decaffeinated by the ethyl acetate (EA) method in Colombia. Frequent Coffee is San Diego, California-based coffee roaster specializing in decaffeinated coffees. Visit www.frequentcoffee.com for more information.

Bottom Line

Soaringly complex, exhilaratingly citrusy decaf cup.
