Notes

A Sumatra cup that’s atypical in its processing method (conventionally washed rather than washed and wet-hulled like traditional Sumatras) and almost Kenya-like in its sweet-savory balance.

On the palate, it delivers richly sweet-savory, multi-layered., with a full, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Rated 93/100, it’s a standout for well-balanced flavors.
