Blind Assessment
In the aroma roundly and sweetly acidy with floral-toned coffee fruit and a hint of chocolate. In the cup gently acidy, medium-bodied with a smooth, almost syrupy mouthfeel. The aromatics remain simple, dominated by a floral-toned coffee fruit (think tart pie cherries).
Notes
Gourmet Coffee Shop is an online retailer that ships small-batch, freshly roasted single-origin coffees. It highlights its commitment to convection roasting, a technology utilizing a column of hot air rather than the conventional turning drum to agitate the roasting beans. Visit
Who Should Drink It
A classic medium-roasted Costa Rica breakfast cup, sweetly tart, full-bodied, crisply refreshing.
