New single origin coffee in from Brazil

From Ruvaldo Delarisse's farm Chapadao de Ferro.

Acid: Low plus

Body: Full

Texture: mainly clean, liquid brown sugar...soft and full.

Flavor Profile: rooty and sweet orange when ground, first notice of thebrown sugar that waits to explode when wet.  The acid is lightly present, justenough to add hints of cherry to the deep sweet blood orange flavor.  Loads of brown sugar that feels and tastes like a manhatten made with orange bitters and a hint of real maraschino cherry (not the orgeat stuff).  The familiar sweethazelnut that follows provides the medium-long finish.

Noteworthy: Catuai and mundo nova cultivars.  Small farm of 250 hectares in the Cerrado region.  Ruvaldo Delarisse’s coffees are regularly found competing the Brazilian Cup of Excellence competition.
