Blind Assessment

Lindsey Bolger: "A coffee with some interesting twists and turns. While dominated by a less desirable woody flavor, a sweet and chocolaty aroma and clean finish redeems what may be an otherwise ordinary coffee" (82). Ken: "Bittersweet, with dry chocolate and nut tones. A little too bitter and not quite sweet enough for me. The finish is astringent but rich." (83)

Notes

Certified organically grown and Fair-Traded. Although traditionally processed Sumatras like this one are technically washed or wet-processed coffees, a series of peculiarities in how they are processed and dried give them their characteristic low-key richness and idiosyncratic, often unpredictable, flavor notes.

Who Should Drink It

Those who take their coffee with dairy, which should turn this rather bitter coffee with its wood (Lindsey) or nut (Ken) tones opulently chocolate.
