96	Caribou Coffee Minneapolis, Minnesota Starlight Blend Roast: Medium Review Date: November 2011 Origin: Not disclosed. Price: $14.99/16 ounces

Blind Assessment: Intense sweetness suggesting honey and dried dates supports an impressive, layered complexity: cedar, ripe orange, roasted nut, hints of rose and strawberry. Juicy acidity; lively, syrupy mouthfeel. Rich, long, flavor-saturated finish.

Notes: This blend is 100% Rainforest Alliance certified, meaning all component coffees were produced following sustainable ecological and socio-economic criteria developed by the Sustainable Agricultural Network, a coalition of independent, environment-focused non-governmental organizations. Caribou Coffee is a retail roasting chain based in the upper Middle West whose rather irreverent motto "Life is short. Stay awake for it" belies a serious approach to coffee.

Who Should Drink It: Those who enjoy the sweet and avoid the bitter in coffee and life. A coffee almost shocking in its natural sweetness. This is not the empty sweetness of refined sugar but rather of ripe fruit, floral honey and fresh-cut, aromatic wood.

Coffee, more so than wine, is a continually changing product. Recent reviews, whether written by Coffee Review or readers, are most likely to reflect current versions of a given coffee.
