Blind Assessment

Bright, richly sweet, complex. Red currant, jasmine, dark chocolate, tangerine zest, maple syrup in aroma and cup. Sweetly savory structure, with juicy-bright acidity. Crisply silky mouthfeel. The balanced, integrated finish is centered around notes of red currant and dark chocolate, with hints of tangerine zest into the long.

Notes

Produced by smallholding members of the Ndumberi Farmers Cooperative Society and processed at the Ngaita Factory (mill) from trees of the SL28, SL34 and Ruiru 11 varieties of Arabica by the traditional Kenya washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). Mostra Coffee is a women-, minority-, veteran-, and immigrant-owned micro-roaster based in north county San Diego. For more information, visit www.mostracoffee.com.

Bottom Line

A vibrant fruit- and chocolate-driven Kenya with elegant floral notes throughout; especially long, lingering finish.
