Guatemala Antigua - Retaña Yellow Bourbon

At only 2 1/2 days rest, I love this coffee.

This coffee is soft, sweet, clean, clear, crisp and enticing.

The aroma is honeyed to the point of relaxing, contrasted with enough spice to keep you alert with anticipation.

At first there is white grape, very present, but not biting, and soon accompanied by a mouth-watering perception of pear. The fruit fades and leaves an inviting floral aspect reminiscent of the bouquet of wild honeysuckle.

Anticipation rewarded ...

Eddie,

You write the such eloquent reviews. Keep them coming and may your next cup of Sweet Maria's be even better than your last!
