Arrived here July 2009. Certified organic. This coffee has just been milled after resting in parchment since its late harvesting about 2 months ago, exactly the way you want the coffee to be handled. Kona Purple Mountain Extra Fancy is from a small, eight acre, family farm. This farm goes out of their way to do things the right way, which means they keep to traditional farming and processing techniques. The varietal, Kona Typica, are sun ripened and hand picked only when ready. Wet processing is all done on the farm and the parchment coffee is completely sun dried on wooden platforms. The farm is a member of the Kona Coffee Council. The beans are very large, screen 19. Production is very limited, especially of this top Extra Fancy grade. This is 100% pure, authentic Kona coffee from a single farm. We have only a small supply. While we prefer this coffee roasted to a Full City Roast which preserves and develops its bright, acidic nature, those very qualities make it a candidate for darker roasts. Cup characteristics:Very bright and sweet. This coffee is mild and delicate as the best Konas should be. Well defined, citrusy flavor notes; floral. Firm, structured body. Flavor development throughout the cup. Roasting notes: We prefer C+ to FC roasts but there are fans of darker roasts of Kona coffees. Sweetness and floral notes will be maximized at lighter levels.
