Blind Assessment

Floral-toned, very, very sweet. Tea rose, candied apple, agave syrup, dark chocolate, orange marmalade in aroma and cup. Gently brisk acidity; creamy-smooth mouthfeel. Citrusy finish with undertones of tea rose.

Notes

Produced by Edwin Enrique Noreña of Finca Campo Hermoso, entirely of the Castillo variety of Arabica, and processed by carbonic maceration (which involves fermenting the whole fruit in a sealed container that has been flushed with CO2), and dried in the whole fruit.

Bottom Line

A richly floral, incredibly sweet carbonic macerated Colombia with tea rose notes at center, supported by orange marmalade.
