This Maragogype lot (pronounced: mara-go-ee-pay) was the highest scoring of the farm this year with lively acidity, great depth of flavor, and sweetness. Maragogype is a coffee varietal known for its large bean size, often called the "elephant bean." It is a mutation of the Typica variety and is appreciated for its unique flavor profile.

Tasting notes paint only the roughest picture here. A cup that evolves as it cools, drifting from the slightly spiced and floral aromas you might expect from a Maragogype, then opening up to a citrus-forward profile with a long and creamy aftertaste.
