Barista Review

"My first impression of this coffee is its fruit-like sweetness! The inherent quality of these beans is exceptionally high! It features bright lemon acidity with orange-like flavors, and thanks to sufficient sweetness support, it doesn't feel uncomfortably acidic at all. Instead, it presents a juicy sensation with a very smooth mouthfeel! This is a coffee that remains enjoyable from hot to cold, offering excellent balance! Most importantly! A competition-grade, Central American, natural Geisha available for under 100 RMB during Double 12!!! All baristas! You must buy it!!!"
