Tasting Notes:
Always one of our favorite Mexican coffees. Good from light to dark. Although Natural processed, this is not a fruit bomb like many other natural processed coffees, has slightly fruity overtones that balance great with some citric, malt and nutty undertones. Its a little fuller bodied cup than most Terruno lots with well above average sweetness. Lighter roasting will have noticeable citric crispness upfront and will accentuate the fruitiness. Medium roasts balance the tones nicely and smooth out the citric tones. Darker roasts turn more chocolaty, gets pretty roasty and smoky, retains a sweet edge and shows hints of fruitiness as the cup cools. A good daily drinker across the roast levels.
Roasting Notes:
A nice medium roast is the way to go, can lean it a little lighter or darker depending on personal taste. Roasts pretty even for a natural, is a bit higher chaff, but would still make the easier to roast category.
