I received this in a coffee swap, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Additionally, I can't find all the details, as I believe it was a limited run for Luminous supporters and not thoroughly documented on the website. However, it aligns with some of the heavily curated selections. processed Colombians that are quite good. I am not really part of the philosophical debate as to whether this is actually coffee or flavored coffee or whatever. I just taste it and try to figure out if people will like it and if I like it.
I think this is quite enjoyable. I still get the dried strawberry with milk chocolate and pink lemonade, ruby red grapefruit. this has been the year of funky processed coffees and I think this is in the top decile.Cupping Method:18:1, 92C Hario v60

Funny to get this coffee as a leftover from a friend's Leaderboard S11 a day after reading about the Bayters being in the Panama Papers. I have to do more homework on that.
This was a small sample but the coffee was good. Light, and a little funky, and very delicious with a lot of tropical notes, pineapple, gooseberry, and something like a jasmine/black tea.Cupping Method:Hario v60
