What's exciting about this coffee
This coffee comes from the Dung K’No Commune in Lam Dong, Central Highlands, in Vietnam, and was imported by Mercanta. The Duc Trong mill processes this lot, and the cherries come from 180 smallholder farmers. This one stood out because of the sweetness. It was so sugar-forward and reminded me a lot of salted caramel and raisins.
This coffee had a ton of berries and milk chocolate on the nose, along with big raspberry and berry jam notes that come through the cup as well. This cup has a touch of earthiness that brings it all together in a way to highlight the complexity in this coffee.
