Cupping Evaluation
Cupping Details
Herbaceous and nutty from the start, this one start with a nose of your favorite kindergarten snack- peanut butter and celery. A low glow of citrus and herbs rides on a clean and juicy body. The citrus is joined by caramel and sweet onion throughout, while low tones of mulchy cocoa show through towards the end. The finish tapers quickly into herbaceous molasses.
