Blind Assessment
High-toned, crisply sweet-tart. Lemongrass, cocoa nib, tea rose, magnolia, sandalwood in aroma and cup. Brightly sweet structure with juicy, sparkling acidity; plush, satiny mouthfeel. The resonant finish leads with notes of lemongrass and cocoa nib, with undertones of magnolia.
Notes
Produced by Gibran Leonardo Cervantes Covarrubias of Cafetal El Equimite entirely of the Geisha variety of Arabica, and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit).

Bottom Line
A particularly fine Mexico Geisha: elegantly spice-toned, richly floral, deeply sweet and complex.
