Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Richly chocolaty, deep-toned. Dark chocolate, graham cracker, almond butter, cedar, tangerine zest in aroma and small cup. Very smooth, viscous mouthfeel; crisply chocolaty, nut-toned finish. In cappuccino-scaled milk, dark chocolate is further amplified to an almost dessert-like intensity.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of the Castillo and Caturra varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed before beans are dried). 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 selections from distinguished single estates and cooperatives around the world. Visit www.templecoffee.com or call 916-454-1282 for more information.

Bottom Line

A very chocolaty Colombia roasted for espresso applications, with rich sweetness and aromatic cedar notes in both straight shot and milk.
