"Upon grounding, it has a sweet and tangy aroma of lemon peel, peach, bergamot and white flowers. At first sip, lemon custard, peach and bergamot are the main flavor, followed by the fragrance of Jasmine and flavor of strawberry. As it cools down the lemon peel aroma and jasmine fragrance became clearer. The coffee is sweet and delicate."
