Flavor Description
Extra Fancy represents the pinnacle of Kona grading. This lot possesses an exceptionally balanced structure; the entry is rich with hazelnut and caramel sweetness, followed by a mellow acidity reminiscent of red apples. Silky mouthfeel with a lingering chocolate finish.
Region Highlight
The Kona district on the Big Island features fertile volcanic soil and the unique "afternoon cloud" phenomenon, providing natural shade that results in a mellow, non-sharp profile.
Brewing Notes
- Pour-over: Medium grind, water temperature 88–90°C, ratio 1:15. Lower temperatures better preserve its delicate nutty sweetness.
- Note: Beware of "Kona Blends" on the market; this is a 100% pure Kona lot with significantly more depth.
