Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Rich, tartly sweet. Wisteria, ripe passion-fruit, dark chocolate, a hint of fresh turmeric in aroma and small cup. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Long, flavor-saturated, gently drying finish. In two- to four-parts milk, continuing suggestions of chocolate and crisp passion-fruit balance a cooling hint of mint or tumeric.
Notes
This coffee is a blend of three select green coffees, one from the small village of Inza in Colombia, one from the Bedele Sota cooperative in Ethiopia, and one a lot from Finca Siberia in El Salvador that consists entirely of the heirloom Bourbon variety.
