Blind Assessment

Savory-sweet, deep and juicy. Pomegranate, ginger flower, dark chocolate, pomelo zest, cedar in aroma and cup. Savory-leaning structure with cola-like, phosphoric acidity; viscous, creamy mouthfeel. Flavor-saturated finish — long, chocolaty, fruity and spice-toned.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers of the Giakanja Farmers Cooperative Society, from trees of the SL34, SL28 Ruiru 11 and Batian varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.

Bottom Line

This Kenya hits all the notes: tart fruit, spicy florals, rich chocolate, pleasing aromatic wood and complex citrus.
