Peru Cajamarca Cenfrocafe Washed

Bro, those are some grimace colors. Purple and orange. YIKES.(I mean the image). I found this coffee to be extra pleasing in the lane of expected and very approachable yet not an assault on your pallet. A good "pallet" cleanse coffee without boring however. Peru's can be normal but they also can be just sort of a peru coffee wherein it does a bit of what brazil does mixed with colombia and I kind of dig that. Chocolates, Nutty, Citric. Nice sweetness. Really enjoyable.
