Blind Assessment

Deeply sweet, subtly complex. Almond, mulberry, baker’s chocolate, cedar, a hint of wisteria-like flowers in aroma and cup. Quietly and gently bright acidity; light but silky, buoyant mouthfeel. Chocolate and almond in particular carry into a resonant finish.

Founded in 2015, the Greater Goods mission is to enrich the lives of coffee-drinkers through passion, creativity, innovation and commitment to the consistency of the specialty coffee the company roasts, and through the local causes supported with its proceeds.
