Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Deep-toned, balanced and dessert-like. Black cherry, dark chocolate, roasted hazelnut, caramel and clove in aroma and small cup. Full, creamy mouthfeel; substantial, sweet-toned finish with notes of dark chocolate, roasted hazelnut and clove. In cappuccino format, caramel and chocolate expand around the fruit, while hazelnut carries into the finish.

Bottom Line

A richly satisfying espresso blend built around dark chocolate, caramel and hazelnut notes, with enough fruit and spice to add complexity; especially harmonious in milk.
