Cupping Evaluation
Cupping Details
Juicy tomato, light berry and cocoa define the nose of this cup. The body is round and pretty smooth with a slight drying effect. Mellow in its acidity we find faint berries and a malic apple note. Cocoa is as low as the flavor goes, laced with sweet almond and a cane sugar like sweetness. The finish starts fruity but fades into a dark caramel.
