Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Richly chocolaty, softly fruit-toned. Baking chocolate, caramel, dried cherry, cedar and orange zest in aroma and small cup. Velvety-smooth mouthfeel; balanced, bittersweet finish. In cappuccino format, chocolate and caramel deepen, supported by a subtle citrus throughline.

Bottom Line

A classic-style, chocolate-forward espresso with gentle fruit lift and excellent milk performance, offering familiarity, sweetness and balance throughout the profile.
