La Minita Estate El Conquistador - | |
| |
Rated 92 points La Minita was referred to as the top "Estate Coffee of the late 20th Century" by Coffeereview.com and is clearly one of the top coffees on the planet. A unique coffee with a deep, fruity, sweet dark chocolate flavor, great after taste, very smooth cup overall unlike other Costa Rican coffees. This coffee comes from the valley of Santa Maria Dota in the Tarrazu region. For many years, this coffee has gone mostly to a single roaster in Germany. The beans are fairly small, and produce a coffee of exceptional density and heavy body. Aroma (1-10): 8 Acidity (1-10): 8 Body (1-10): 8 Flavor (1-10): 8 Aftertaste (1-10): 8 Roast (Agtron): Medium (48/60) Total score from cupping lab: 92 Notes: La Minita Estate is perhaps the most consistently celebrated of single farm or "estate" coffees. Blind Assessment: Pure, balanced, quietly complete. Sweet-toned, deep aroma with rounded fruit notes, butter, milk chocolate, a hint of flowers and lemon. In the cup rich acidity, silky mouthfeel and continued understated milk chocolate, butter and tart-cherry coffee-fruit notes. Sweet, consistent finish. Who should drink it: Those who prefer quiet flawlessness to the striking or lavish. 1-lb.: $13.95 5-lbs.: $69.75 |
