Blind Assessment: Sweet, deep, tartly pungent aroma: ripe lemon, black currant. Rich acidity, slightly lean mouthfeel. Aromatics simplify in the cup, but remain pleasing and lively: lemon, pungent black currant, nut-toned cocoa.
Notes: Specializing in Caribbean coffee, Tas Kafé is a micro-roaster based in Beacon, New York, about sixty miles north of Manhattan. Visit
Who Should Drink It: Sweet but tartly pungent cup.
