Hawaii 2008 Kona: Moki’s Farm, Roger and Vivian Rittenhouse
Call central casting ask for a picture perfect coffee bean and this is what you get. These are beautiful beans! The smells are sweet and spicy with buttery chocolate, cinnamon and cardamom. Once you take a sip of this, you know that it is a special coffee – it is very balanced, rich and smooth with milk chocolate, a touch of malty-musty-almonds and a citrusy-floral note. What stands out is the magical mango-juice finish: just as the slightly dry acidity passes, out jumps the mango from side-stage, joined by sweet floral tones reminding one of lavender combined with the soapy sweetness of artichoke’s aftertaste. Not just a looker, this coffee is a talented star with real depth and complexity: a rarity indeed.


Aloha
I was surfing around and found this review of our coffee. Very nice. Thank you. Mango? Hmmmm Guess I need to pay more attention. My pallet never has been good. I think it’s from a poor sense of smell – which is actually handy at times.
Do you think this will translate into sales?
