Blind Assessment

Balanced, deeply sweet with savory undertones. Caramel, red apple, baking chocolate, grapefruit zest, freesia-like flowers in aroma and cup. Sweetly savory structure with crisp, lively acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. The finish centers around notes of caramel and freesia with a lasting hint of grapefruit zest.

Notes

Certified organic. Produced at Umoja Farm entirely from the Red Bourbon variety of Arabica and processed by the washed method. Equiano Coffee was founded in 2013 by the Udosenata family. For more information, visit www.equianocoffee.com.

Bottom Line

A solid DR Congo cup, balanced, engaging, pleasantly reminiscent of eating a candy apple.
