Blind Assessment

Superb aroma: rich, deep, pungently chocolate. The chocolate turns more intensely pungent, almost pine-toned in the cup, balanced by sweet, lush undercurrents of fruit.

Notes

Java is a classic coffee origin that has fallen out of favor over the last decade or so owing to inconsistency. This example, however, represents Java at its traditional best. Peaberries result when the coffee fruit develops only a single, oval bean rather than the usual pair of flat-sided beans. Peaberries produce a somewhat different (usually better) cup than normal beans from the same crop. Moore Coffee is a small retail and wholesale roaster that also offers a range of other fancy foods and beverages. Visit www.moorecoffee.com or call 800-994-8060 for more info.

Who Should Drink It

Those who find earthy Sumatras overstated but clean Latin American coffees boring.
