CATIE-R6    Theobroma cacao

Derivation: CATIE.
Location: CATIE, Costa Rica.

Notes:  CATIE clones names were previously included in the ICGD as ICGD preferred names. As the CATIE names are now known to be accession names the synonymy has been altered for those clones with pre-exsiting names (as advised by Bartley, 1998a [BAR98A]). CATIE remains the ICGD preferred name for selections made at CATIE.

Roast: 126 °C for 25 mins
Flavour: Moderate up front acidity with mineral acid and fruit acid notes. Middle taste has some brown wood characteristics with moderate astringency and mild bitterness. It has a later browned fruit / dried fruit note. Has a middle-to-end chocolate base that is quite good. 126°C x 25 minutes is a good roast for this bean.
