    Data rationale Monosaccharides 95th percentile · Glucose 90th percentile · Sucrose 84th percentile

  3. 03
    Fruit and malt complexity: diterpenes

    Abundant diterpenes point toward greater complexity in flavor and texture.

    Data rationale Diterpenes 80th percentile · Flavor potential 82nd percentile

  4. 04
    Clarity and a clean finish

    Low lipid levels suggest a clear, clean cup, while low caffeine supports a clean finish. Keep the delicate aromas of this Geisha unobscured.

    Data rationale Lipids 7th percentile · Caffeine 18th percentile
