Sweetly crisp, gentle. Fresh-cut cedar, molasses-influenced dark chocolate and a hint of flowers in aroma and cup. Roundly soft acidity; lightish but supple mouthfeel. Cleanly sweet finish.
Evaluated as espresso. Complex; rich yet delicate. Dark chocolate, cedar, orangy citrus, floral top notes in aroma and small cup. Lightly syrupy body; round, deep, quietly flavor-saturated finish. Surprisingly lean in two parts milk, though a pleasant chocolate note and a hint of flowers persist.
Evaluated as espresso. Rich, balanced, deep. Nut, vanilla and chocolate in the aroma. In the small cup gains complexity and depth: dark chocolate, raisin, fresh-cut fir, bright berry. Creamy mouthfeel; sweet chocolate- and fir-toned finish. Sweet and delicately rich in two parts milk.
Evaluated as espresso. Impressively complex and deep straight shot. Minty dark chocolate, orangy and raisiny fruit, a hint of dusk flowers in aroma and small cup. Smooth, lightly syrupy mouthfeel; resonant, chocolate-toned finish. Fades a bit in two parts milk, although it retains a delicate, sweet version of chocolate and a continuing hint of flowers.
Evaluated as espresso. Balanced, sweet-toned aroma: almond, milk chocolate, apricot. Round, syrupy mouthfeel. In the cup a pungent cedar moves forward softened by continued milk chocolate and apricot. The chocolate persists in a slightly heavyish, savory-toned finish. In two parts milk, however, the chocolate rounds nicely, turning minty and deeply fruit-toned.
Buttery caramel, gently pungent cedar, baker's chocolate and a slight, pineapple-like tartness in aroma and small cup. Full, syrupy mouthfeel; the chocolate note in particular sweetens and lingers in a long, deep finish. Delicate in two parts milk; caramelly chocolate and a continued hint of pineapple-like fruit.
Evaluated as espresso. Sweet, pungent citrus – grapefruit, orange – and crisp cocoaish chocolate in aroma and small cup. A hint of roses. Full, buttery mouthfeel. The cocoa and sweet, ripe citrus carry into the finish and persist with graceful softness in two parts milk.
Evaluated as espresso. Cherryish brandy, peach, dark chocolate in the impressive aroma. Round, syrupy mouthfeel with a dry edge that carries into a complex small cup: cherry, dark chocolate and tart, zesty citrus. Two parts milk develops the dark chocolate tendencies, turning the fruit toward a rich raisin.
Robust, strong-gestured coffee. Nut, citrus, fresh-cut fir and a deep, apricot-like sweetness in aroma and cup. The acidity is rich and complex though slightly astringent; the mouthfeel full though a little rough-textured. Rich finish with a salty-savory edge.
Impressive aroma: caramelly chocolate, almond, lemon, grape, a hint of flowers. Tartly rich acidity; fullish though rather rough mouthfeel. Aromatics persist but simplify a bit in the cup and finish.
(As brewed in a Keurig Special Edition B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce 6-ounce serving): Delicate profile: caramel, gently tart fruit in the aroma, with the caramel deepening toward dark chocolate in the cup. Soft, balanced acidity; leanish though smooth mouthfeel. Sweet, caramelly finish.
Evaluated as espresso. Rich, sweetly tart, very complex in the small cup: mandarin orange, layered suggestions of milk chocolate, apricot, brandy, fresh-cut fir, anise. Syrupy mouthfeel. The orange note turns ripe and sweet in the finish. Soft, delicate and impressively complex in two parts milk: chocolate-toned orange, apricot, a continued hint of fir.
Intense aromatic complex carries in layered richness from aroma to finish. Cocoa, moist earth and leather, plum, sweetly pungent grapefruit; but you will doubtless find more. Crisp, integrated acidity; buttery mouthfeel. Long, sweet-toned, flavor-saturated finish.
Sweetly balanced and round: ripe lemon, nut-toned cocoa, a hint of honeyish flowers in aroma and cup. Soft, berry-toned acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. The cocoa carries into a sweet finish with a hint of drying astringency in the long.
Evaluated as espresso. Sweet-toned aroma: chocolate, nut, cherry. In the small cup buttery mouthfeel with excellent depth and balance; the chocolate turns caramelly and the fruit toward a zesty orange, both supported by a pungent cedar. In the finish good flavor persistence but slightly bitterish. Maintains flavor with authority in two parts milk: rich, pungent, with hints of continued orange, cedar and chocolate.
(As brewed in a Keurig B70 Platinum single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce 6-ounce serving): Sweet-toned aroma with hints of tart cherry, flowers and fir. The sweetly tart fruit animates a refreshingly crisp cup, lush yet delicate. Clean, simple finish.
(As brewed in a Keurig B70 Platinum single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce 6-ounce serving): Straightforward and smooth. Soft hints of roasty aromatic wood, caramel and a faint orangy, floral-toned fruit. Flavors linger gently in a very slightly astringent finish.
Difficult to assess in coffee terms, but an attractive and distinctive beverage. Sweet-toned, perfumy aroma: caramel, flowers, a hint of fruit. Delicate, wine-like acidity. The mouthfeel is light in weight but silky in texture. In the cup caramel dominates with floral and chocolate-fruit complications. Clean finish, though flavor fades rather quickly.
The aroma is rich with floral notes and a pungent black-currant-like fruit. Delicately and sweetly tart acidity; smooth, silky mouthfeel. The black currant note carries into the cup with an enveloping hint of dark chocolate. Slight hint of drying astringency in the finish.
Delicately sweet aroma highlighted by a complex range of fruit: ripe berry, spicy citrus, with a backgrounded nut and fir. Gently tart acidity, medium body, silky mouthfeel. In the cup flavor smoothes and rounds, with the nut and fir moving forward and the fruit softening toward chocolate. Flavor persists in the short finish but fades toward a mild astringency in the long.
