Colombia Paraiso Red Bourbon
Strawberry Shortcake, Raspberry, Meyer Lemon
A friend brought this bag to the recent fermentation tasting I organized, as a supplement. I remember it having the richest fermented character of the set. It’s been waiting in my freezer for another taste since then.
As a latte, strawberry and fig notes really opened up for me, followed by a lingering deep fermented character. This one sits close to my personal limit for “funkiness,” but keeps it in check and is very pleasant overall.
