 nectarine

nectarine
=========

Nectarine is a bright, fruity flavor often found in specialty coffee. It presents with a sweet, juicy acidity that evokes the flavor of fresh nectarines. This flavor is commonly associated with coffees from Kenya, Ethiopia, or other East African origins, where the warm climate and processing methods help develop these vibrant, stone fruit-like notes.
