Tasting Notes

Where fire meets flavour — observations scrawled in the roasting log between pulls.

Aroma

Sea breeze carrying notes of toasted grain, caramelised sugar and distant florals — before the cup even reaches your mouth.

intensity
8.0

Acidity

Bright and vibrant like citrus zest misted with ocean spray. Clean, phosphoric, never sharp enough to cut.

intensity
7.0

Body

Medium-full with a syrupy, silken texture evoking warm honey drawn slowly across damp clay.

intensity
7.5

Finish

Long and lingering — dark chocolate and sea salt, receding like the tide across warm stone.

intensity
8.5

Sweetness

Refined cane-sugar rounded by a whisper of dried fig — never cloying, always present.

intensity
6.5

Balance

The sum held in equilibrium — each note pressed against the others like stones stacked against the tide.
