Blind Assessment

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.

Notes

Based in Hong Kong, Fresh is a micro-roaster committed to offering artisanal, small batch coffees freshly roasted to order. Visit www.hkcoffee.com for more information.

Who Should Drink It

A gift to drinkers of decaffeinated espresso: Impressive as a straight shot and even better in short milk.
