Product Description

Taaroo has a very floral side when kept to light roasts, showcasing delicate, complex Guji characteristics, with tart high tones and acidity. This isn't an aggressive coffee, but rather a very aromatic, delicate, and distinct cup. It's the kind of coffee you'd expect to make top placement in a coffee competition! From the dry grounds, rue herbals and potent jasmine floral notes are clear, as well as a light, but convincing, sweetness of caramel. My lightest roasts showed a hint of honey graham cracker in the wet aroma, with floral overtones that recalled jasmine pearl tea, and tropical fruit accents too. It's a lot to take in, and very similar profile transfers to the brewed coffee. City roast level is a lightly sweetened cup, with bright and tart citrus notes, aromatic florals and fruit. The perfumed side to this coffee is prominently featured. Fresh cut flowers like gardenias, jasmine pearl tea, along with a strong rue herbal note, are intoxicating and lend to the tea-like aspect in the profile. The citrus flavor notes hit on a lemony acidity that weaves through it all, providing a high toned piquant character for this coffee, particularly in the lighter roast levels. As the cup cools, hints of sweet spice and passion fruit come into play, and the crowning floral notes add to the lingering finish. My City+ roast brought out a little more fruit, though I wouldn't call the cup 'fruity'. Clean background notes of red berry, and mango were a welcome addition, with citrus acidic impression still shining through. This aromatic, light bodied cup is best enjoyed in the City to City+ roast range, where flavor and aroma are truly outstanding!
