93	The Roasterie Kansas City, Missouri Guatemala Antigua Organic, 1999 Roast: Medium-Dark Review Date: July 1999 Origin: Guatemala Price: NA

Blind Assessment: An almost symphonic coffee. Nuance stretches across the profile: floral notes at the top, winy, dry fruit in the middle, and a smoky pungency at bottom. Sweet, cedarish notes tend to dominate in aroma and aftertaste, but in the cup fruit and flowers upstage everything else.

Notes: An almost symphonic coffee with floral notes at the top; wine and dry fruit in the middle; and smoky pungency at the bottom. Certified organically grown. The Roasterie advertises its coffee as "Air-Roasted," meaning the coffee is roasted on a fluid-bed machine that works roughly like a hot-air corn popper rather than on a more typical drum roasting machine.

Who Should Drink It: Thrill-seeking sophisticates.

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.
