This is our first time working with Brayan and his coffee. This cherry seed is a sweet and puckery treat. The cup is syrupy in texture with lively notes of citrus and malic acidity. Joven's profile sure is sugary, remnicient of a strawberry-rhubarb reduction. This lot displays classic characteristics of Pink B. tropicality extended with a full bodied range of slightly underripe berry to heavy, super ripe stonefruit.
