Paradise Roasters

Hawaii Ka’u AhSan Farm

Review Date: Dec 2009

A rich, balanced lighter-roasted cup. Complex aroma: tart, cherryish coffee fruit, milk chocolate, honey, a hint of flowers. In the cup wine-like acidity, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. The coffee fruit notes are complicated by a slightly savory, spice-like nuance. Simplifies slightly in a cleanly rich finish.

Tully's Coffee

House Blend

Review Date: Dec 2009

Aromatic notes of roasty chocolate, aromatic wood and remote fruitiness. Medium to full body, smooth mouthfeel and soft acidity that hints at brightness. A faint suggestion of flowers and sweet citrus in the cup round to fruit-toned chocolate. Finishes cleanly, with mild notes of toast, roastiness and cocoa in the long.

Sumatra

Review Date: Dec 2009

Sweetly round aroma with hints of tropical fruit and wood. Soft acidity, full body, delicate mouthfeel with flavors of sweet grapefruit, cedar, earth and dark chocolate. A mildly astringent roasty pungency emerges in the short finish that softens and sweetens in the long.

Bluekoff Company

Bluekoff Medium Roast

Review Date: Dec 2009

In the pungent aroma chocolate, walnut, toasted grain, perhaps caramel. Mild acidity and balanced flavors, with hints of citrus that soften to a more sweet-toned fruit and then to an earthy chocolate. Slight roughness in the finish distracts from the pleasant bittersweet chocolate character.

Straightforward roasty aroma, with hints of sweet chocolate. In the cup, simple in flavor: soft nuttiness and a charred cedar. Leanish mouthfeel, medium body, with bittersweet roastiness carrying into a dry finish.

Breakfast Blend

Review Date: Dec 2009

Pleasingly round aroma: nut, aromatic wood and a suggestion of fruit. In the cup balanced acidity, medium body, and a soft citrus note that rounds toward a mild, simple sweetness. As the cup cools the finish turns slightly astringent and a touch sour.
