Origin: South-Central Kenya
Notes: Barefoot Coffee Roasters is an award-winning and widely recognized small-batch roasting company that describes itself as “a happy little cafe and roastery in the heart of Silicon Valley.” Visit www.barefootcoffeeroasters.com for more information.
Blind Assessment: Pungent but sweet throughout the profile. In the aroma caramel, fruit-toned, slightly smoky cedar, orange. In the cup the pungent, smoky fruit notes read as a tartly sweet grapefruit, perhaps dry berry, with continuing undercurrents of caramel sweetness. Distinct orange notes resurface in the rich finish.
Who should drink it: Those who prefer some pungent roastiness with their classic, grapefruity Kenya.
