86	Bridgetown Coffee Portland, Oregon Bridgetown Blend Roast: Medium-Dark Review Date: February 2004 Origin: Not disclosed Price: NA

Blind Assessment: Sweetly balanced and gently roasty. Little distinguishable nuance, though the cup is pleasantly alive with an almost subliminal range of fruity sensation. Slight astringency in the finish.

Notes: Bridgetown Coffee calls itself "The Premier Microroaster of the Great Northwest." Bridgetown uses fluidized bed or "hot air" roasting technology in which a column of heated air both roasts and agitates the beans, and prints consumer-accessible "roasted on" dates on its packaging.

Who Should Drink It: Those who wear comfortable clothes.

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.
