Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. This delicate, gently bright espresso attracted gently expressed support from both Ken (91) and his co-taster (90). Crisp, hazelnut-toned aroma; light but lively, effervescent mouthfeel. Ripe lemon and caramel in flavor and finish, where the co-taster also found a tickle of sweet black pepper. Maintained presence nicely in three parts milk, where the co-taster found it “immensely sweet and clean with lemon character.”
Notes
Five percent of sales of all Just Love coffees go to Waterstep, a non-profit dedicated to bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations. Additionally, twenty-eight cents per bag of Cafe Femenino goes to Thistle Farms/Magdalene House, a women's crisis center. This coffee is also Fair Trade certified, meaning it was purchased from small-holding farmers at a "fair" or economically sustainable price. Café Femenino is an organization that supports women farmers and their families in coffee growing communities. Just Love Coffee Roasters is a small-batch roaster located in Murfreesboro Tennessee; its mission is to develop the unique qualities inherent in each coffee bean and to be equally passionate about helping those in need.
