Reviews for Polly's Gourmet Coffee
Ken (rating 85) writes: "Simple and without nuance, but agreeably envelops pungent roasty and crisply acidy tones in a fundamental sweetness." Kevin (rating 84): "Some liveliness, substantial body. Correct but forgettable."
The virtue here is a round and gentle sweetness, the weakness simplicity. The sweetness fades a bit in the finish.
Here the whole is more than the parts. A balanced structure of sweetness and bitterness and a plump, smooth body compensate for a relative lack of nuance. For some coffee drinkers, the bitterness may assert itself a bit too strongly in the aftertaste.
