Brew Guide
Description:
Natural. Cherries are picked ripe, carefully sorted, then dried whole (skin-on) on raised beds/patios with slow, even airflow. This intensifies fruit sweetness and aromatics while keeping a clean, structured cup.
Taste Profile
- Aroma: Floral top notes (jasmine/white blossom), dark cherry, and warm caramel.
- Body: Medium, silky and rounded — juicy rather than heavy.
- Flavour: Jammy stone fruit (nectarine, peach, plum) with red-cherry sweetness, layered with orange candy/bright citrus and a soft caramel finish.
- Sweetness: Very high — brown sugar, toffee, and ripe fruit syrup linger long.
- Acidity: Medium, smooth and juicy — citrus-malic lift that stays elegant, not sharp.
