Product Description

I've really enjoyed brewing this Tanzania peaberry the last few days. I roasted it to two different levels, and ultimately settled on City as my preferred development. The cup was mouth refreshing and sweet, like Kenyan coffee, with a bright backbone of acidity that really popped. There's a sweet lemon citrus note in the ground coffee that settles in nicely with notes of green grape, and baking spices. The wet aroma had a juicy orange note, along with lime, and green tea. The brewed coffee doesn't stray far from this preview. The cup had some honey to the sweetness, followed by complex, bright fruit flavors. A lemon glaze accent brought a bracing acidic quality, and connected notes of fruit tea, and yuzu citrus. There was also a 'green' aspect in flavor that at first was hard to pinpoint, but I settled on spirulina apple juice, and fragrant hops. Overall, this is such pleasantly bright brew to drink, that reminds me of a cross between spiced Rwanda, and some of our more brightly fruited Kenya's. The sweetness is syrupy, and should hold up to dark roasting too. This description is from the cupping notes of our coffee importer, Sweet Maria's
