Product Description

This lot from Kii is juicy and brilliant at lighter roast levels, with dark fruit and citrus notes throughout. At City to City+ the dry grounds smelled of black currants, orange hard candies, a sweet-floral honey note, and plump grape. The wet aroma had a syrupy sweetness to it with less fruit up front, notes of red honey, and caramelized sugars are what I noted. The cup is quite juicy at City and City+ in both flavor and mouthfeel. The brew puts dark fruits to the front of the cup, with notes of Concord grape, black currant, and a hint of boysenberry that comes through in the aroma too. You get a sense of this coffee's acidity as it cools down a bit, at first showing tartaric aspects, but then more like juicy citrus as the profile shifts to sweet hints of Satsuma, and blood orange. Spiced notes made their mark in the cup aroma, combining with fruit flavors to bring out profiles of mulled grape cider, and spiced orange marmalade.
