The aroma is very sweet, with distinct notes of cocoa powder and milk chocolate. It’s slightly fruity, with hints of figs and loquats. The flavor remains sweet, with notes of nuts such as hazelnuts and walnuts. On the palate, it’s dense, with a syrupy body and very mild acidity. A well-balanced coffee that’s excellent on its own and even better with milk.
