Blind Assessment
Deep-toned, fruit-driven and gently fermenty. Red plum, dried strawberry, dark chocolate, molasses and cardamom in aroma and cup. Briskly sweet acidity; full, velvety mouthfeel. The finish is resonant and sweet, with red plum, dark chocolate and cardamom notes front and center.
Notes
Produced by Gasharu Coffee and processed by the anaerobic natural method, in which whole fruit is fermented in tanks with limited oxygen before drying, also in the whole fruit. Founded in 1994, Coffee By Design is a specialty coffee roaster with a roastery and coffeehouse in Portland, Maine. For more information, visit www.coffeebydesign.com.
Bottom Line
A full-bodied anaerobic Rwanda that leads with berry and stone fruit, chocolate and warm spice tones, supported by a crisply sweet structure.
