This was a very unique coffee I probably found more interesting than that I loved it. Super aromatic pre-grind with sweetness. I got a little bit of celery/tomato up front, then purple grape, pineapple, green apple with a lemony finish. Some spice in the mid-palate, like a nutmeg. A lot of fresh acidity. For me, it just didn't quite all come together for me - it's a style I like and many notes I normally like, but I didn't quite think things balanced out. A bit hard to fully explain but I got something similar over 2 cuppings with a Chemex and a v60.Cupping Method:2x with Chemex and a v60. Part of Leaderboard Coffee game, Season 10, Coffee #10.

I wrestled with this one a bit because my wife really liked it. She has been on a bit of a lower acidity kick so maybe that's the difference.
I've had a lot of great Kenyan coffee this year. I'm usually excited to see the Kenyan blackberry / red current in roaster notes. I think this one is OK but not spectacular. The blackberry is there as well as a little bit of a muddled Mid palate that's a little herby/woody. It's missing a brighter note of acidity to balance that out. I don't get red fruit at all. I'm testing this out of an Advent calendar so I don't have any extra to dial it in.Cupping Method:18:1 v60, 92C. From Revolver Advent.
