The documented profile
Attributed descriptors, not measured flavor intensities. See the sources below.
Flavor families classify the listed descriptors; they are not intensity or quality scores. Character bands below explain what is documented and what is still unknown.
Reading the cup
Coffee character.
The outlined band shows the reported or estimated level. These describe the cup; higher is not better.
Roast level
Reported- Light
- Medium-light
- Medium
- Medium-dark
- Dark
Placed at the roast band given by the source. This is a label, not an instrument-measured roast color. Source ↗
What does roast level mean?
The roast degree of the bean; separate from sweetness, body and quality.
Acidity
Estimated · low confidence- Gentle
- Moderate
- Bright
A moderate acidity band is our provisional starting guess from the roast and listed descriptors. The source does not establish this intensity. Reference for estimate ↗
What does acidity mean?
The perceived brightness or tartness of the cup, not a quality score.
Sweetness
Estimated · low confidence- Subtle
- Noticeable
- Pronounced
Without explicit sweet-associated descriptors, we provisionally expect subtler sweetness. Absence from the notes is weak evidence, so this estimate needs tasting. Reference for estimate ↗
What does sweetness mean?
How strong the sweet impression feels. Sweet-sounding notes can inform a guess, but do not measure its intensity.
Body / mouthfeel
Estimated · low confidence- Light
- Rounded
- Full
Rounded is a low-confidence starting hypothesis for this profile. The available information does not directly establish texture or weight. Reference for estimate ↗
What does body / mouthfeel mean?
The perceived weight and texture of the coffee, separate from roast darkness.
Finish
Reported- Brief
- Sustained
- Lingering
Lingering follows the source’s explicit description of a long finish. This records the roaster’s account, not a measured duration. Source ↗
What does finish mean?
How long the flavors remain after a sip, rather than how good they are.
Coarse descriptive bands, not laboratory measurements or cupping category scores. Brewing changes the cup. Missing descriptions receive low-confidence editorial guesses, which can change after tasting.
Our take
Orange and floral notes suggest a bright aromatic direction, while the tea reference offers a way to compare texture expectations with richer coffees. Those descriptors guide discovery without establishing a measured intensity.
Who it suits
Consider it if citrus and floral references appeal to you and you want to compare a washed coffee against a natural from Guji.
Behind the coffee
The roaster identifies Suke Quto in Guji, heirloom material, washed processing with raised-bed drying and a medium roast. Its stated altitude range is 1,900–2,200 m. Exact harvest and lot identity remain unconfirmed.
What the number means
The listed 84.25/100 is a roaster-reported cupping total. No dated category sheet was located. We have not tasted this offering and do not manufacture a score breakdown.
