Blind Assessment

Juicy, bright, classic. Sweetly savory, deep-toned. Black currant, amber, brown sugar, magnolia, cedar in aroma and cup. Balanced, sweet-savory structure with vibrant acidity; syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. The resonant finish consolidates to cocoa-toned florals and fruit.

Notes

Despite grower discontent and urban encroachment on prime coffee lands, Kenya continues to produce some of the world’s most elegant and distinctive coffees. David's Nose is a specialty coffee roaster based in Taipei, Taiwan whose founder studied agronomy and has a deep interest in crop quality. For more information, visit www.davidsnosecoffee.com.

Bottom Line

A classic Kenya cup: balanced, lively, juicy, fusing sweet with richly savory impulses.
