Reviews for Cuvee Coffee

Sweet-toned aroma with notes of toast, aromatic wood, nut, and a mild fruitiness. The fruit note becomes more pronounced in the cup, reading as stone fruit, along with continued sweetness and hints of chocolate and continued aromatic wood. The finish settles just on the bracingly rich side of astringent.

An intense cup. Pungent herb and cedar mingle with a soft fruit in aroma and cup. Full body, smooth mouthfeel. The fruit sweetens toward chocolate in the cup, balancing the sharper herb and cedar notes. The chocolate persists to soften the long, dry finish.

Delicate but intense aroma: sandalwood, hints of cherryish fruit. In the cup lean in mouthfeel; the aromatic wood notes settle toward chocolate while the fruit displays a distinct and pleasant grapefruit twist. The chocolate and fruit persist only momentarily in the finish before they are lost in astringency. Reader Frank Baker nominated this coffee as "a quintessential Sumatra, absolutely the best I have ever tasted."
