Catching up on Leaderboard Season 15 data entry.
I really liked this Rwandan from Little Waves, as much I have any Rwandan, which I usually find solid but undistinguished.
For a washed, I thought this had a bit of funkiness to it. I got an almond overtone, a satsuma type citrus, and a nice natural sweetness and medium mouthfeel. I thought it had a very rich aroma with a bit of spice on the grind.Cupping Method:v60, 18:1 ratio, 197F - part of Leaderboard S15. I ended up getting this one right though I struggled with it possibly being the Ecuadorian.

Angels Cup Blind tasting.
There are some good thing here but a cedary woody note that is too strong. Its present at the beginning and lingers as a slight bitter note at the end. I get some black tea, mandarin, and maple syrup character that is nice.Cupping Method:Hario V60 pourover
