Product Description

This Huehuetenango lot offers consistent, well-balanced flavors, and works great from medium to dark roast levels. I sensed caramel and cocoa in the dry fragrance, with light nutty hints in the background, and hazelnut chocolate in the wet aroma. This coffee brews crowd-pleasing flavors across a fairly wide roast spectrum, bittersweet balance, with a glint of acidity that structures mild top note hints. City+ roasts brought out accents of toasted nut from beneath compact flavor profile of sweet baked goods, like chocolate crinkle cookie, and caramel-almond bars. Full City roasts swells with a deep-toned flavors of dark chocolate, cocoa bittering in the back end, and a note of walnut if the aftertaste. I think you're going to find a versatile espresso here too. On it's own, Unión Cantinil has layers of dense chocolate/cocoa flavors, and should bring body and bittersweetness to an espresso blend.
