What hits the nose first when one opens the bag is a gentle sweetness. The second whiff draws in subtle citrus notes, fruit salad, and a meaty-nut. After brewing, it is a coffee fragrance with hints of sweet chocolate. The taste is, in a word, balanced. There is a harmonious triptych of coffee, chocolate and nuts that have been painted with a brush dipped in fruit juice. Smooth and super-balanced, with low acidity and a pleasing sweet fruity finish, this bean accommodates a broad palate.
