86	Natchitoches Coffee Company Natchitoches, Louisiana Nakatosh Special Dark Roast Roast: Dark Review Date: December 2003 Origin: Not disclosed Price: NA

Blind Assessment: The sweet musty tones that run from aroma into cup read as distinctly nut-like -- walnuts perhaps -- with an edge of low-toned fruit: pumpkin and papaya. All of that detail fades in the finish, which is long, lush, and sweetly clean.

Notes: Nakatosh Special Dark Roast is a traditional local coffee brand currently revived in its original home of Notchitoches, Louisiana. Visit www.nakatosh.com for more info.

Who Should Drink It: Lovers of regional tradition: This is a blend that refers honorably and explicitly to southern Louisiana coffee tradition.

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.
