Thailand – Lanna Coffee – Law Wu – Honey Processed
Tasty honey processed but reminds me more of a washed processed. Not much for a fruit forward cup profile, bigger bodied and darker toned, reminds me a bit of the Nicaraguan Selva Negra Honey Processed. Lighter roasts will show some nice clean lemony floral acidity but do not fully develop the nice robust chocolaty factor, interestingly enough, one gets a bit of African herbal/spice in the cup at the lighter roasts. Medium roasts are where we thought it shined, just a small hint of citric sweetness upfront with a good balance of spicy chocolate notes, unique spice, more like the Indian coffees. Darker roasts get more like the Dominican with strong bakers chocolate and smoky tones, a hefty cup with very low acidity.
