Notes

The unique method of processing the cherries on a single layered bed was done with the intention of a cleaner taste, and successfully so - the result is a clear tasting cup of coffee.

It felt like with the cleanness was also accompanied by a slightly more subdued flavor profile.

Complex and clean stone fruit flavors predominate the coffee, with a continuation of powdered floral notes that may come as an afterthought, often towards the finish.
