Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Nut-toned, chocolaty, richly earthy. Hazelnut, chocolate fudge, fresh-cut oak, fir, molasses, gardenia in aroma and small cup. Crisp, velvety mouthfeel; almondy finish supported by notes of dark chocolate and fresh-cut oak. In three parts milk, richly nut-driven with pleasing hazelnut and chocolate fudge complications.
Notes

Bottom Line
A sweetly nutty blend of washed and wet-hulled coffees roasted for espresso — rich, earth-toned, balanced.
