Product Description

I was impressed by the sweetness in smells, ranging from caramelized sugars, to dried fruits. The wetted grounds pulled out a scent of dark sugars that are accented by hints of toasted marshmallow, and a note of raisin and dried date. The cup sweetness was very nice in both our City and Full City roasts. Light roasts were laced with notes of unrefined sugars, creamy caramel, and a hint of candied walnut. Fruit notes are subtle, but do play a part of the cup profile, like red apple, and persimmons. The finish had some complex tea-tannin bittering, and understated suggestions of woody whole spices in the nose. Darker roasts raised deep cocoa low tones and a hint of blackberry. I found these darker roasts to be a good option for espresso as well, creamy-textured and bittersweet, with soft accent notes of red berry and cardamom.
