Elizer Espresso

Review Date: May 2012
Price: $12.99/12 ounces
JBC Coffee Roasters Logo

Evaluated as espresso. Balanced, crisp, smooth. Raisin, almond, dark chocolate, cantaloupe-like fruit in aroma and small cup. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Chocolate in particular lingers in a pleasantly dry finish. Superb in two parts milk: classic balance with complexly expressed dark chocolate complemented by raisin, apricot, cedar.

San Augustin Guatemala Antigua

Review Date: May 2012
Price: $16.75/12 ounces

Round, full, deeply layered complexity: orange, plum, night flowers, all wrapped in caramelly sweetness. Smooth, balanced acidity; syrupy mouthfeel. Flavor simplifies, or perhaps condenses, in a rich, sweet finish.

Mystic Monk Coffee

Easter Sunrise Blend

Review Date: May 2012
Price: $13.99/12 ounces
Mystic Monk Coffee Logo

Intense, idiosyncratic, original. Bittersweet with a salty savory edge. Dried date, raisin, dark chocolate, distinct lavender top notes. Deep-toned acidity; heavily syrupy mouthfeel. Smoothes and sweetens a bit in the finish, but retains its weighty, savory richness.

Ethiopian Shanta Golba Espresso Fair Trade

Review Date: May 2012
Price: $10.99/12 ounces
JBC Coffee Roasters Logo

Evaluated as espresso. Deep and sweet in the aroma with mint- and brandy-toned dark chocolate, apricot, peach. In the cup the chocolate and fruit turn crisp and salty-savory with an anise-like pungency. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel; rich, heavyish, bittersweet finish. In two parts milk the coffee recovers its lift and sweetness with the chocolate and stone fruit softening and blooming.
