Blind Assessment
Deeply and roundly roast-toned. Dark chocolate, singed cedar, raisin, almond, magnolia in aroma and cup. Sweetly savory with gentle, round acidity; crisp, velvety mouthfeel. Chocolate and raisin lead the way in the quiet finish.
Notes
This exceptional coffee was selected as the No. 28 coffee on Coffee Review’s list of the Top 30 Coffees of 2020. A natural-processed (dried in the whole fruit) Ethiopia coffee decaffeinated at the Descamex plant in Mexico by a water-only process that does not involve the use of solvents. Big Shoulders Coffee is a Chicago artisan roaster that emphasizes a fresh-roasted, no-nonsense approach to fine coffee. Visit www.bigshoulderscoffee.com or call 312-846-1439 for more information.
Bottom Line
A sweet-toned decaf suggesting chocolate-covered raisins complicated by gently smoky aromatic wood notes.
