Simon Hsieh's Aroma Roast Coffees

Concerto Psychedelico Trio

Review Date: Oct 2010
Price: NT$900/16 oz.
Simon Hsieh Aroma Roast Coffees Logo

Rich aroma with layered nuances of sweet cherry, stone fruit, nut and chocolate. In the cup, gentle but sustained acidity, lightly syrupy mouthfeel and softer fruit flavors, tending toward tarter cherry and sweet citrus. Chocolate remerges in the finish along with a note of aromatic wood.

Diedrich Coffee

Kenya

Review Date: Oct 2010
Price: $11.95/12 oz.

Soft hints of sweet orange, stone fruit and flowers in the aroma. Deceptively simple lemony quality in the cup becomes sweeter and more nuanced as the cup cools, showing notes of black currant and more flowers. Rich in the short finish; a milk chocolate note resonates in the long.

Jim's Burger Cafe

Kobra Blend

Review Date: Oct 2010
Price: NT$600/8 oz.

Evaluated as espresso. Rich, orangy dark chocolate, nut, and hints of flowers and aromatic wood in aroma and flavor. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel. A nagging astringency betrays the cup in the finish, where it eventually overpowers a chocolaty sweetness. Round, balanced presence in two parts milk: Rich chocolate with a continuing hint of orange.

Green Mountain Coffee

Sumatran Reserve

Review Date: Oct 2010
Price: $8.49/10 oz.

Richly sweet flavor and aroma combines earth and aromatic wood with distant suggestions of fruit and chocolate. Muted acidity and a heavy, rather rough mouthfeel that smoothes out in a sweet but simple finish.

Green Mountain Coffee

Our Blend

Review Date: Oct 2010
Price: $8.49/12 oz.

oft notes of nut and baking spice with a suggestion of dusk flowers in the aroma, deepening and complicating in the cup. Quiet but rich acidity, lightly syrupy mouthfeel. In the finish flavor fades rather quickly toward a mild astringency.

Diedrich Coffee

Java

Review Date: Oct 2010
Price: $9.95/12 oz.

Very rich, with a pungent, fruit-toned aromatic wood pleasingly dominating aroma and cup. As the cup cools the fruit and aromatic wood acquire a cocoa-like, chocolaty nuance. Muted acidity, medium-bodied, with a bit more wood than fruit in an otherwise sweet finish.

Tully's Coffee

Madison Blend

Review Date: Oct 2010
Price: $8.49/12 oz.

Caramel, malt and scorched wood notes dominate in the aroma and in the cup, where they lean toward a bittersweet dark chocolate. Heavy and heartily rough in mouthfeel. The finish is also rather heavy, but quite sweet.
