Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. High-toned aroma combining flowers and very ripe orange with a distant hint of fresh-cut grass. In the small cup smooth, lightly syrupy mouthfeel and a complex range of flavors that maintain the floral and ripe citrus theme with complications of black cherry and sweet nut. The flavors carry into a sweet short finish and linger delicately in the long. The flavor complex carries intact into two parts milk cushioned by a rich, caramel-like sweetness.

Notes

The first offering in George Howell's Barista Espresso Series, Cerise was developed in cooperation with Nik Krankl of Taste Coffee House in Newton Massachusetts. This espresso blend marks a new departure for Terroir, which has historically offered only elite single-origin coffees. Terroir is the creation of George Howell, one of the world's leading coffee visionaries. It is a pioneer in the revival of medium roast styles designed to foreground the character of the green coffee. Visit www.terroircoffee.com or call 866-444-5282 for more information.

Who Should Drink It

A competition quality espresso that resists simplification in milk.
