Blind Assessment

(As brewed in a Keurig K-Cup B70 Platinum single-serve brewing device using a "RealCup" capsule to produce a 6-ounce serving): Sweetly brisk, caramelly. Caramel, milk chocolate, orange zest, a hint of fresh-cut fir in aroma and cup. Softly brisk acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Distinct chocolate presence in a sweet though mildly drying finish.
