【Impression】
Medium, mellow, freshly baked vanilla cake, maple syrup, cocoa, roasted almond, a touch of lemon peel, chocolaty, silky texture, bold but smooth, deep mellow sweetness along with tangy bitterness, high citric acidity as a top flavor, raw cacao nib, roasted pecan, raw cashew, earthy spiciness, mild bitterness as a long lasting aftertaste.  Acidity impression changes when cup is chilled.   

【Note】
Unfortunately, there are not much information available about San Juan Microlot, besides the farm location.  Located on a slope of Acatenango, a stratovolcano.  Hope more transparency, though I understand Microlot farms are hidden treasure for importers in this specialty movement.
