Blind Assessment
Sweetly pungent aroma: distinct orange and nut notes with hints of cedar, butter, dark chocolate. In the cup deeply lyric structure with a soft, backgrounded acidity, lightly syrupy mouthfeel and a touch of bittersweet roastiness. Quiet, tight-knit complexity: roasted nut, orange, cherry, dark chocolate. The chocolate notes become more explicit in the clean, rich finish.
Notes
American Favorites is a collaboration between two small specialty coffee roasters and GreatCoffee.com. This coffee line is marketed as "A tribute to the coffees America loves best," presumably a reference to the current offering of Breakfast Blend and Pacific Coast Dark Roast. Visit
Who Should Drink It
A Pacific Coast Dark Roast for subtle palates: Pungent but quiet, complex.
