Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Softly but richly pungent. Cashew nut, roasted cacao-nib, papaya, honey-mustard in aroma and small cup. Syrupy mouthfeel. Rich but drying in the short finish; a chocolaty sweetness emerges in the long. Quietly nuanced and nut-toned in three parts milk.

Notes

Nossa Familia Coffee is a Portland, Oregon-based roaster whose focus is on creating exceptional coffee by way of building exceptional relationships. Full Cycle is the culmination of the Nossa Familia philosophy and their signature espresso blend. The name signifies Nossa Familia’s “full cycle” of coffee supply — from the farmers to you — and is also a nod to their company's culture of bicycling. Fifty cents per bag purchased goes toward supporting Portland's Bicycle Transportation Alliance and the Community Cycling Center, helping build a healthier and more accessible community through cycling. Visit www.nossacoffee.com or call 503-719-6605 for more information.

Bottom Line

A gently pungent, nut-toned espresso, with a plush mouthfeel and quiet nuance.
