Blind Assessment
Crisp, sweetly nut-toned. Toffee, pecan, fresh-cut fir, baker’s chocolate, rosemary flower in aroma and cup. Mild, briskly sweet acidity; satiny mouthfeel. The gently drying, resonant finish centers around baker’s chocolate in the short, with aromatic wood and nut tones resurfacing in the long.
Notes
This is a blend created from coffees from Sitio do Bone, Santo Antonio, and Sitio Castello farms. All are wet-processed or “washed” coffees, meaning the fruit skin and pulp were removed from the beans immediately after harvesting and before drying. Temple Coffee is a quality-focused retail and wholesale specialty roaster active in Sacramento, California since 2005. Committed to sourcing, roasting and brewing the finest coffees, Temple features coffee from distinguished single estates and cooperatives around the world.

Bottom Line
A pleasing, accessible cup for those who enjoy mild, sweetly nut- and chocolate-toned Brazils.
