90	CC's Coffee Baton Rouge, Louisiana Colombia Toledo Labateca Roast: Medium Review Date: December 2004 Origin: Norte de Santander Department, Colombia Price: $5.95/8oz

Blind Assessment: A complex and interesting coffee rather than a perfect one. The aroma is subdued but round and sweet with a distinct cherry-toned milk chocolate. In the cup the acidity is soft but the fruit turns bracing and tartly sweet -- think the pleasantly sour sweetness of pie cherries. As the cup cools the fruit softens once again, revealing a refined but almost candyish chocolate character.

Notes: CC's Coffee is the upscale specialty line of Community Coffee, a distinguished family-owned coffee company founded in 1919. This coffee is facilitated by a sustainable coffee partnership between Community Coffee and the Toledo and Labateca community first established in 2001. Community puts ten cents per pound of coffee purchased into a local endowment for social development projects, including a new technical school for high-school-age children.
