Blind Assessment: Crisp, quietly complete, balanced. Hazelnut, fresh-cut fir, cranberry, a hint of oregano in aroma and cup. Rich, round acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates in a simple, rich finish.

Notes: This coffee is certified organically grown. Allegro Coffee Roasters is a long-established specialty roaster now a subsidiary of Whole Foods Market.

Who Should Drink It: Lovers of the classic Latin-America cup: nothing flashy, nothing out of balance here, just a roundly and quietly complete cup.
