Blind Assessment

Delicately sweet, balanced. Wild honey, bergamot, sassafras, cocoa nib, freesia in aroma and cup. Gently bright, sparkling acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. Sweet-toned finish centered around notes of cocoa nib and bergamot.

Notes

Produced at Silver Cloud Farm, entirely of the Typica variety of Arabica, and processed by a proprietary method involving the addition of wine yeasts to the fermentation. Big Island Coffee is an award-winning coffee roaster operated with hands-on passion by Kelleigh Stewart and Brandon von Damitz. Visit www.bigislandcoffeeroasters.com for more information.

Bottom Line

A quietly confident, harmonious Ka‘ū coffee with a throughline of rich honey, complex bittersweet citrus and grounding cocoa nib.
