Tasting Notes: This cup is nice and clean, a little fuller bodied and smooth with a sweeter edge. A great year for Peru coffees; the cup starts just a little citric, fairly low acidity only detectable at the lighter roast points, a little hint of soft fruit but mainly a pretty chocolaty cup profile with some nutty accents. Lighter roasts one can find a hint of caramel if you get lucky, and leans on the nuttier side, little citric will poke out. A nice medium roast will make anyone happy and provide good balance and smooth chocolate tones, low acidity – a good daily drinker. Darker roasts work good but burn out a bit of the sweetness, the chocolaty factor sure compliments the toastier smoky tones of the dark roasts.
Roasting Notes: An easy bean to roast. If you like a little acidity and a more exotic cup profile, stick with the lighter roasts, just a little development past first crack. For most, getting a little closer to 2nd crack than first (medium) builds the body and chocolaty factor while producing a lower acidity cup. Darker roasts work for dark roast fans, but otherwise should be avoided.
