Cupping Evaluation
Cupping Details
The aroma is smooth and sweet with a hint of fruit, but the first sip surprises the palate with savory herbs and smoke. The body is full and rich, and as we get further into the cup the smokiness recedes to reveal soft apple and light cherry with hints of dark caramel. With adept symmetry, the aftertaste reverts to the earliest impressions of herbs and smoke. In 3 words this coffee is Smoky - Full Bodied - Fruity
