A lovely coffee from light to dark. This was a good offering last season and a fantastic one this season. This year the cup has a bit stronger of a fruit factor and less more rustic tea notes. Shines at a light to medium roast and is full of floral/fruit and complex chocolaty spice notes.  Light to medium roasts can come off a bit crisp and lemony, accentuating the fruity/floral tones, with just a little balance with dry chocolaty spice. One can really build up  the chocolaty factor by progressing the roast closer to 2nd crack but its will mute up some sweet fruity notes that many will love.  Great for cold brew or blending at a nice medium roast.

Tasting Notes: A lovely coffee from light to dark. This was a good offering last season and a fantastic one this season. This year the cup has a bit stronger of a fruit factor and less more rustic tea notes. Shines at a light to medium roast and is full of floral/fruit and complex chocolaty spice notes.  Light to medium roasts can come off a bit crisp and lemony, accentuating the fruity/floral tones, with just a little balance with dry chocolaty spice.

Roasting Notes: Roasts surprisingly even for a grade 3 natural. High chaff though. Best around a light to medium roast. Blending medium to dark. All depends on personal taste though, if you like fruity and floral, lighter is better. Complex chocolate and spice notes, take it a little darker. Setup is very important if shooting a bit lighter, took 3-5 days for those strong tea like spice notes to mellow, bringing the fruitiness and complexities forward in the cup.

  1. Don I.

    I followed the package recommendation and roasted to just past first crack. To my eye it was a light brown color. Very smooth drink and Very fruity! My new favorite.
