    • ]]>     Well, it’s simply that the rustic sweetness of this sample just stuck with me. Honestly, I wasn’t going to purchase this since I was already ordering another of their coffees. Not that I thought it wasn’t a great coffee, but I was clearly referencing the deep complex fruit of their Espresso Reserve. But after a few weeks, I was still thinking about this one. The rustic sweetness of Muskovado Sugar draping over light cocoa and chocolate just kept coming back into my mind. So here we are, and there you go. A smooth, classic Brazil coffee with tons of old world sweetness and chocolate from one of the most innovative, quality-driven estates in Brazil.

Medium bodied, with caramel – more than sugar – that comes through as the cup cools. First whiff is sweet, fruity with a nicely balanced toffee, cocao background to it. As a varietal, this doesn’t have the heavier fruit (blueberry, huckleberry) that a typica coffee from Harrar or Sidamo might – it’s softer, lighter than that. Subtly stretched out. There is the influence of climate and the growers particular skill showing through – giving it a character that is completely enjoyable early early in the morning, or mid-afternoon as an http://www.deftcoffee.com/2008/08/06/bolivia-san-ignacio-iced-sumptuous/.
