The aroma is all about soft floral. I haven’t smelled any chocolatey or nutty aroma the whole time I’ve had these beans. It’s kind of tea-like.

Citrusy acidity dominates. I taste something familiar from the first sip—and I only realize later it’s cherry (the one in the notes)! I rarely eat cherries, so the taste is hard to recall. Funny that this coffee reminds me of what cherry tastes like. At the end, there’s grape—not as aroma, but more like the aftertaste of eating one.
