PAPUA NEW GUINEA : ESTATE @ STARBUCKS COFFEE

An exclusive blend from the island's finest estates. This bold, full-bodied coffee is notable for its round mouthfeel, clean herbal notes and mouth watering juiciness.

Origin

The coffee is grown in Kigabah Estate in Papua New Guinea and processed via washed method.

Assessment

The aroma is pleasantly joyful with burst of herbal bouquet, somewhat dims the stress I've had for the day. The coffee gives off a sweet aromatic scent and even sweeter on the first sip. The body is not as bold as it was written on the packet, leaning more towards medium acidity. It gives off a rather chocolaty finish which is quite clean on the palate. Sweet throughout the whole process.

Aroma 8/10

Aftertaste 8/10 (clean)

Recommendations

Definitely a feel good coffee. Not to be wasted on a rushed sitting, this one is for you to get a big mug of, sit with your favourite companion (in the form of a person, or a book) and de-stress. I'd have this as a dessert coffee, to be enjoyed with a slice of orange meringue, or a basic cheese cake.
