Blind Assessment: Sweetly nut-toned, chocolaty. Hazelnut butter, baking chocolate, pink peppercorn, fresh-cut fir, graham cracker in aroma and cup. Sweet structure with gentle acidity; satiny-smooth mouthfeel. The nut-toned finish is supported by aromatic wood and peppercorn.

Notes: Produced at Fazenda Cachoeira de Grama entirely of the Yellow Bourbon variety of Arabica and processed by the natural method. Paradise Roasters specializes in micro-lot Arabica and Robusta coffees from Asia and other emerging origins. The company prides itself on quality and freshness, craft-roasting coffees in small batches only after orders are placed. Visit www.paradiseroasters.com or call 763-433-0626 for more information.

The Bottom Line: Designed as a single-origin espresso but cupped here for brewed applications, this natural-processed Brazil coffee offers a gentle, sweetly nut-toned cup.
