Blind Assessment

An extraordinarily pure coffee in a dramatically light roast style. Sweet nut, fresh-cut cedar and orangy citrus in the aroma. Medium-bodied and giddily sweet in the cup, delicate but rich, with low, wine-toned acidity, an orange-toned fruit and hints of nut, flowers and chocolate. The complex fruit notes carry into a quietly rich, clean finish.

Who Should Drink It

A demonstration of how lyric and exhilarating a very pure coffee can be at a very light roast. Inherent sweetness and low acidity should make this a relatively stomach-friendly coffee.
