Blind Assessment

Luminous, precise and beautifully structured. White nectarine, pomelo, star jasmine, lemon verbena and vanilla bean in aroma and cup. Vibrant, crystalline acidity; silky, buoyant mouthfeel. The finish is exceptionally long and articulate, redolent of white nectarine, jasmine and lemon verbena.

Notes

Produced by members of the GuKeng Farmers Association, entirely of the Geisha variety of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). GuKeng is a new label co-established by the GuKeng Farmers Association of Yunlin County and local coffee farmers. The coffee is roasted by the farmers’ association and is sold at their local farmers' market. Email p07kulon@ms56.hinet.net for more information.

Bottom Line

A superb Taiwan-grown Geisha whose washed processing underscores the variety with striking transparency: high-toned citrus and stone fruit, intricate florals and a delicate vanilla sweetness, all carried by clarity and finesse.
