    This is a pretty good cup of coffee and comes in very convenient format.

    I don't know what natural salt fermentation for 36 hours with slow drying in a greenhouse really means as I haven't seen it as a coffee processing technique. However, it does seem to have done a good job taking the edge off of this robusta. It is not bitter or rubbery at all, which allows us focus on the other characteristics.

    I don't necessarily get the pineapple, papaya, ripe red fruit, and spices mentioned. For me, it is a strongly, brewed black tea, a hint of strawberry, and a touch of watermelon funk. Though I suppose those are red fruits! The finish is very clean and maybe a little peachy.

    This is a very, very pleasant surprise as I have tried a lot of very bad Vietnamese coffee!

    Cupping Method:I made it at 201° with 180 g of water as instructed on the package. I also comparison tasted it with a coffee from leaderboard that I suspect is also a natural processed Catimor.

Roast Level: Medium
Medium roast coffee balances the beans' natural flavors and the roasting process, providing a well-rounded taste profile. When selecting a medium roast, look for a balance of acidity and sweetness, with caramel, nuts, and chocolate notes and a medium body.
Bean Source Country: Vietnam
The specialty coffee industry in Vietnam has been gaining traction in recent years, with its Robusta coffee making its way into third-wave coffee shops and retail markets, driven in part by its diaspora. While more than 90% of coffee produced in Vietnam is robusta, they also produce some specialty-grade Arabica coffee. Vietnam's Central Highlands are a highly productive plateau for coffee plants.
