81	Nescafé (Nestle USA) Glendale, California House Blend Roast: NA Review Date: January 2000 Origin: Not disclosed. Price: NA

Blind Assessment: An understated dark-roast profile: distinctly bitter, but with a hint of elevating sweetness and an elegant little shimmer of fruit and flowers.

Notes: An understated dark-roast profile: distinctly bitter, but with a hint of elevating sweetness and an elegant little shimmer of fruit and flowers. "100% Arabica Coffee," according to the bag. The bag also describes the roast as "medium," but by American supermarket standards it is moderately dark. Sold pre-ground in a foil valve bag. Cost per ounce: $0.70.

Who Should Drink It: Dark-roast lovers too lazy to grind their own coffee and too busy to shop for a better dark roast at a similar price at a specialty coffee store.

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.
