Blind Assessment
In the small cup rather stingy in body, sharp, without nuance. Milk softens the sharp tones, however, allowing the coffee to develop beautifully, with rich fruit and floral notes leaning toward chocolate. (84 straight espresso, 89 w/milk)
Notes
Composed entirely of coffees from the Coffees of Hawaii farm in central Molokai, this espresso is a blend of the farm's high-toned wet-processed Malulani Estate coffee and its lower-toned, malty, dry-processed Molokai Muleskinner. Visit
Who Should Drink It
A cappuccino-drinker's espresso: complex and sweet in short milk.
