Coava Coffee Roasters

Guatemala Xeucalvitz Espresso

Review Date: Sep 2010
Price: $18.00/500 g (17.6 oz.)

Evaluated as espresso. Smooth, quietly complex. Lemon and flowers in the aroma, with deepening notes of aromatic wood and chocolate in the small cup. Full, syrupy body. Very long, rich finish saturated with chocolate and flowers. Sweetens nicely in milk but simplifies a bit, though the lemony chocolate rings on, particularly in the finish.

Terroir Coffee

Guatemala El Vergel

Review Date: Sep 2010
Price: $15.95/12 oz.

A sweet, well rounded cup. Cherry and citrus mix with chocolate, nut and cedar in aroma and cup, along with a distant hint of lavender. Perfectly balanced, sweet-toned and smooth acidity. Fruit diminishes in the finish focusing the flavor on unsweetened chocolate.

Coava Coffee Roasters

El Salvador Santa Sofia Espresso

Review Date: Sep 2010
Price: $18.00/500 g (17.6 oz.)

Evaluated as espresso. Intense cedary, fruit-toned wood in the aroma; some acidity in the cup, with chewy, raisiny fruit notes leaning toward dark chocolate. A hint of flowers at the top. Strong presence in two parts milk: full mouthfeel, bittersweet chocolate, with the aromatic wood nuance rounding toward nut.

Terroir Coffee

Kenya Kiamabara

Review Date: Sep 2010
Price: $15.95/12 oz.

Soft, sweet fruit tone in the aroma broadens in the cup, displaying distinct notes of blackberry, black currant and apricot. Bright-toned, fruit laden acidity and silky mouthfeel. Long lasting honeyed fruit flavors simplify only slightly in the finish.
