Coffee overview

This one jumped off the table when I sampled it early this year, and I opted for a later harvest and container along with many other fantastic Unblended lots that you will start seeing on the menu soon. This one is a total screamer. If you remember Santa Librada and La Esperanza, this washed Pink Bourbon is in a similar vein. Loads of acidity and intensity in a very clean cup. I am very excited to have this one on the menu.

Filter eval day 1: Gabi Standard Recipe of 1:18 - A shock of acidity starts this one off, tart berries and stonefruits give way to softer florals on the finish, especially as the cup cools. An intense cup.
