Overall Impression:

A 175-gram coffee sample yielded 4 units of category 1 defects during analysis. Despite this, the coffee qualifies as specialty grade according to the green grading standard. The sample's relatively high density suggests complex taste and sensory characteristics. Additionally, the nature of the defects (category 1) indicates good farming practices and a well-executed washing process. *Due to the sample size being below the recommended 350 grams, the results cannot be considered conclusive.
