Caturra Reviews

Crisply and sweetly pungent. Dried persimmon, juniper berry, lemon blossom, slightly salty chocolate, raw almond in aroma and cup. Brothy, sweet-tart acidity; creamy mouthfeel. The richly drying finish leads with cocoa-toned dried persimmon in the short, followed by a hint of nut and perhaps lemon-blossom in the long.

Delicate, sweetly tart. Mango, elm, honeysuckle, buttery macadamia nut in aroma and cup. Brisk, sweet acidity; billowy-light, satiny mouthfeel. The crisp finish opens with suggestions of mango and macadamia, then tails off into gently drying, aromatic elm.

Rich, delicately sweet. Honeysuckle, hazelnut, green grape, baker’s chocolate, cedar in aroma and cup. Gentle, round acidity; silky, giddily buoyant mouthfeel. The sweet, gently tart finish is resonant with green grape and honeysuckle in the short, softening to baker’s chocolate in the long, all supported by aromatic wood suggestions.

Delicate, deeply floral. Lilac, redwood, candied walnuts, roasted cacao nib, dried apple in aroma and cup. Crisp, lively acidity; buoyant, silky-smooth mouthfeel. Flavors consolidate to roasted cacao nib and redwood in the gently drying, rather short, finish.

Delicate and sweet. Caramel, tangerine, lavender and sandalwood in aroma and cup. Crisply sweet acidity; buoyant, silky-smooth mouthfeel. Balanced and elegantly dry, flavor-saturated finish dominated by tangerine in the short and sandalwood in the long.

Soft, crisp, nut-toned. Hazelnut, honeysuckle, plum, a hint of fresh-cut cedar in aroma and cup. Round, quietly resonant acidity; plush, cushiony mouthfeel. The nut note turns chocolaty in a crisply sweet, balanced finish.

Rich, sweetly tart. Star fruit, almond, caramel, hints of dark chocolate and narcissus-like flowers in aroma and cup. Roundly tart acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Fruit, chocolate and floral hints carry into a quietly resonant finish.

Crisp yet lush. Bakers’ chocolate, orangy citrus, musk, a hint of grappa in aroma and cup. Rich, juicy acidity; syrupy mouthfeel. Chocolate and orange suggestions in particular carry into a gently drying finish.

Sweet-toned, quietly lyric. Brown sugar, carob, rose-like flowers, almond, hints of tangerine and cumin in aroma and cup. Round, gentle acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. Quietly flavor-saturated finish.

Elegant flower-bomb. Exhilarating, refreshing meadow flowers, roasted cacao nib, almond in aroma and cup. Delicate, balanced structure. Soft but lively acidity; smooth, plush mouthfeel. Gently but decisively flavor-saturated finish.

Brandy, mint, cocoa and apricot in a quiet but clean dried-in-the-fruit profile. Tart, apple-toned acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Some flavor persists in the simple, savory-sweet finish.

Crisply balanced with a shifting, tight-knit complexity. Flowers, nut, fir, and a dark chocolaty fruit in aroma and cup. The flowers and chocolate carry long into the finish. Gentle acidity, silkily smooth mouthfeel.

Evaluated as espresso. Cherry and chocolate dominate in the small cup and linger deeply into the finish, with layered complications of flowers, aromatic wood and anise. In two parts milk the chocolate becomes deeper and the fruit slightly less nuanced, but overall flavor remains sweet, round and balanced.

Very sweet but tartly balanced profile, dominated by a distinctive, deeply floral-saturated cocoa and fragrant sandalwood. Rich, sweet acidity, light but lively mouthfeel. The short finish is rich and complex; flavor fades very slightly in the long.
