Java is a variety often prized for its subtle, tea-like character. But at Takesi, even the gentlest varieties find new clarity and sweetness. This peaberry lot is a perfect example of how the farm’s high-altitude terroir and careful process can bring out remarkable nuance.
Cherries mature slowly under cool, steady conditions, developing a delicate profile that balances soft fruit with lifted florals. Meticulous hand-sorting and washing protect that clarity and keep the flavours transparent and refined.
In the cup, look for elegant notes of oolong tea, melon, and florals—a graceful, contemplative experience that shows Java at its most expressive.
