    The aroma was super bright and exotic. Candy-like, tropical fruit notes dominated. Rainbow Skittles came to mind. Pineapple, lime and mango notes were most apparent. Excellent sweet-tart balance. Honeydew melon was detectable too. As the coffee cooled, the melon presence intensified, as did the overall sweetness. The flavor profile was similar to the nose and just as impressive. Tangy and sweet, tropical fruit notes came through big time. Very candy like. Lime again was most prominent. Mango was noticeable as well. Possibly some pineapple too. There was an intense, zippy, lemon-like quality in the center. Loads of bright acidity. More lingering, sweet-tart fruity notes on the back end. The finish was also sweet and tart and contained a pithy dryness that was very reminiscent of Sweet-Tart candies. Overall, exceptional sweetness in both the aroma and the flavor. Outstanding acidity in both as well. Nice juicy, medium bodied mouthfeel. This was one of the most unique, complex and overall enjoyable coffees I've tried in a very long time. It's hard to believe this is a Kenyan and even harder to believe that it's washed and minimally processed.
