Deep, quiet, gently chocolaty. Hazelnut, dark chocolate, fresh-cut oak, a hint of orangy citrus in aroma and cup. Simple, functional acidity; very lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Chocolate in particular carries into a dry but sweet-toned finish.

Gentle, quietly complete. Plum, honeysuckle, crisp walnut and roasted cacao nib in aroma and cup. Soft, delicately juicy acidity; satiny mouthfeel. Gently flavor-saturated finish.
(As brewed in a Keurig K-Cup B70 Platinum single-serve brewing device using a "RealCup" capsule to produce a 6-ounce serving): Sweet-toned, balanced, quiet. Caramel, hazelnut, hints of flowers and ripe lemon in aroma and, more intensely, in the cup. Delicately brisk acidity; very lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Flavor, particularly floral notes, carries with surprising intensity and persistence into a long, rich finish.
Price: $15.95/13 ounces
Evaluated as espresso. This delicate, gently bright espresso attracted gently expressed support from both Ken (91) and his co-taster (90). Crisp, hazelnut-toned aroma; light but lively, effervescent mouthfeel. Ripe lemon and caramel in flavor and finish, where the co-taster also found a tickle of sweet black pepper. Maintained presence nicely in three parts milk, where the co-taster found it “immensely sweet and clean with lemon character.”
Slightly savory, gently pungent. Fresh-cut fir, roasted cocoa nib, baked apple, perhaps a hint of sage in aroma and cup. Brisk but deep acidity; silky mouthfeel. The unusual baked apple note, a savory-toned fruit, persists in a balanced finish.
Gentle, crisp, sweet-toned. Honey, lemon tart, delicate hints of milk chocolate and flowers in aroma and cup. Soft acidity; smooth, velvety mouthfeel. Sweet, flavor-saturated finish.
Pure, powerful, sweetly bright. Chocolate, honey, orange zest, fresh-cut fir in aroma and cup. Richly and roundly tart acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. The finish is tart, resonant and flavor-saturated.
Sweet, pungent, complex. Night-blooming flowers, a sweetness half way between honey and molasses, fresh-cut cedar, grapefruity citrus in aroma and cup. Lively, bright, though balanced acidity; delicate, buoyant mouthfeel. Rich, grapefruity tartness carries into a long, resonant finish.
Crisply sweet, delicate. Caramel, honey, orange zest, a hint of eucalyptus in aroma and cup. Gently tart acidity; light but buoyant mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates but persists in a roundly sweet-toned finish.
Price: $19.49/12 ounces
Balanced, lyric coffee. Gently pungent fir rounded by fruit notes (blackberry, plum) in aroma and cup. Soft acidity; lively, lightly syrupy mouthfeel; sweet-toned, cocoaish finish. A very slight grassy or hay-like note emerges as the cup cools.
Suggestions of dark chocolate, smoky cedar, orangy citrus in aroma and cup. Round, gently roast-muted acidity; leanish but smoothly silky mouthfeel. Clean, cocoa-toned finish.
Deep, rich aromatics and flavor: smoky cedar, vanilla-toned dark chocolate, prune- and orange-toned fruit. Muted acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Some dark-chocolate sweetness carries into the long finish.
Evaluated as espresso. Although Ken (90) and co-taster Sean Kohmescher (90) produced identical ratings, they read this coffee a bit differently, with Sean emphasizing its brightish citrus and floral tendencies while Ken added dark chocolate and hint of brandy. Sean was citrus inclined more toward lemon and lime, Ken toward a deeper-toned orange. Both read the small cup as medium in weight though slightly lean in mouthfeel, but admired the sample performance in two parts milk, finding it smooth, creamy, complex: berry, flowers, lemony cocoa.
Bright, sweetly tart. Distinct orange-toned nut in the aroma. In the cup, delicate acidity, leanish but smooth mouthfeel, and continued rich orange, cocoa and nut notes carrying into a flavor-saturated finish that turns rather woody and simple as the cup cools.
Gently opulent night flowers, orangy fruit and a hint of fresh-cut aromatic wood in aroma and cup. Soft aroma, sweet acidity, lightly syrupy mouthfeel, rich, round balance. Simplifies slightly in the finish.
Soft, rather simple but pleasing aroma: hints of cherryish fruit and milk chocolate. Gently balanced acidity and lightly syrupy mouthfeel in a very sweet-toned cup with continued suggestions of cherry-toned chocolate. Some chocolate persists in a clean, straightforward finish.
Sweet, distinctly nut-toned aroma with hints of aromatic wood and flowers. In the cup soft acidity, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Simple and balanced, with a roundly gentle mix of nut and molasses-toned chocolate. Both carry into a sweet-toned finish.
Rich, deep aroma: nut, a hint of chocolate. In the cup soft acidity, lightly syrupy mouthfeel, and a distinct and pleasing sweet cocoa note complicated by roasted nut. Gently rich, though rather short finish.
Sweet-toned aroma with some brightness and woody nut and cherryish fruit notes. Soft acidity, silky mouthfeel. The cup is delicate, sweetly balanced, with tart cherry and nut that grow increasingly woody as the cup cools. Sweet finishing, with a slight decaf sourness that also intensifies as the cup cools.
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.
