Blind Assessment: A gently pungent complex of tart berry and semi-sweet chocolate runs through the small cup with brisk authority from aroma to finish. The berry and chocolate notes blossom beautifully in milk, softening and rounding without losing energy or character.

Who should drink it: Superb organic espresso for cappuccino and short milk drinks.
