Evaluated as espresso. Opulent, complex and big-bodied. Night flowers and a pronounced brandy-like fruit dominate aroma and the small cup, with a crisp, drying hint of cedar. Plump, syrupy mouthfeel. Long, flavor-saturated finish. Two parts milk turns the brandied fruit toward a minty dark chocolate with a continuing floral complication.

Flowers, white wine and tangerine-like citrus soften toward a cocoaish dark chocolate in aroma and cup. Delicately bright, wine-like acidity, silky mouthfeel. Gently tart, chocolate-toned finish.

Evaluated as espresso. A steady and even-tempered espresso, sweet-toned and balanced. Toast, dark chocolate, cedar and a pineapply fruit in aroma and small cup. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel. A cedary chocolate lingers in the long, deep finish and carries with some elegance into two parts milk.

Evaluated as espresso. Bright and complex in both aroma and small cup: cedary lemon, distinct floral tones and a cocoaish chocolate. Smooth though rather lean mouthfeel. Sweetens but maintains character in two parts milk: lemon curd and chocolate, with a particularly long and flavor-saturated finish.

Distinct malty earth and cedary dark chocolate character, enlivened by a hint of lemony citrus in both aroma and cup. Rich acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Flavors carry nicely into the finish, with the lemon hint in particular intensifying.

Balanced, straightforward blend. Fresh-cut fir, raisiny dark chocolate, roasted nut, a hint of flowers in the aroma. In the cup the fir in particular dominates, while the fruit brightens toward cherry. Roast-hushed acidity; syrupy mouthfeel; sweet, rich though simple finish.

A tactful ultra-dark roast dominates a cleanly sweet green coffee: Gently charred aromatic wood with a backgrounded dark-chocolate sweetness and a hint of flowers at the top. Medium body, smooth mouthfeel; slightly astringent finish.

Deep and richly roasty in the aroma: gently charred wood, raisiny dark chocolate, a hint of cardamom-like spice. In the cup medium-bodied but smoothly silky in mouthfeel. The charred, roasty character tends to overshadow the chocolate-toned aromatics in cup and finish.
