Blind Assessment:

Evaluated at proportions of 5 grams of instant coffee powder mixed with 8.5 ounces (250 ml) of hot water. Caramel-toned, richly sweet. Dark caramel, magnolia-like flowers, cedar, baker’s chocolate, a hint of apricot in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned in structure with brisk acidity; smooth mouthfeel. The finish is crisply sweet and resonant, with lingering notes of caramel and apricot.

Notes:

The green coffee for this product was produced in Colombia from trees of the Arabica species. It was solubilized by the freeze-dried method at origin. WAKACOFFEE donates 4% from the sale of each box of 8 packets to support clean water projects. For more information, visit www.wakacoffee.com.

The Bottom Line: A appealing 100% Colombia coffee in instant format that largely preserves the character of the green coffee.
