October subscription release.
Another beautiful entry from Jairo Arcila and our friends at Cofinet. No fancy or advanced processing here. Just a good ol’ fashioned natural. Cherries picked at peak ripeness and dried on raised beds.
I love the way the natural processing augments the chiroso flavor profile here. The acidity leans slightly tart like ripe pink grapefruit, but is balanced by a deeply sweet orange marmalade character. The enhanced sweetness pushes the typical chiroso herbaceous notes into vanilla territory. It’s a perfect compliment to the citrus profile. The cup is rounded by a super juicy mouthfeel and lingering chocolate aftertaste. It’s basically a fruit bomb with a little extra complexity and a lot of good ties.
