Blind Assessment

Floral-toned, sweetly fermenty. Ginger blossom, baking chocolate, black cherry, lemon zest, wine barrel in aroma and cup. Sweet-savory structure with brisk acidity; silky, lightly viscous mouthfeel. The spice-toned, floral finish is supported by notes of wine barrel.

Notes

Produced entirely of the Gesha (also spelled Geisha) variety of Arabica and processed in the whole fruit by a complex sequence of fermentations including natural carbonic maceration (whole fruit is fermented in sealed tanks of CO2), before slow sun-drying. This coffee was used by gold medal-winner Jinlong Li in the 2021 China Brewers Cup. Mikava Coffee was founded in 2013 by the father-son team of Paul and Kevin Doyle, who specialize in experimental processing methods designed to bring out the complexity, sweetness and florality in coffee fruit.

Bottom Line

A gently fermenty, spice-toned Colombia Gesha cup with hints of wine barrel supporting complex floral and chocolate suggestions.
