Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Pungent, rich. Cedar-toned dark chocolate, mango- and banana-like fruit, dusk flowers in aroma and small cup. Fullish, velvety mouthfeel; chocolate and a pungent mango-like fruit in particular linger in a long, deep finish and carry with great authority into two parts milk.
Notes
Coffees from the northern part of the Indonesian island of Sumatra are admired for their complex earth, fruit and aromatic wood notes that result largely from unorthodox fruit removal and drying practices collectively called wet hulling. This is a particularly refined version of the style. JBC Coffee Roasters (formerly Johnson Brothers Coffee Roasters) is a distinguished small-batch roasting company.

Who Should Drink It
The pungent fruit and rich aromatic wood notes beloved by drinkers of fine Sumatra coffees manifest with both depth and elegance in this Sumatra single-origin espresso.
