Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Delicate, gently roast-toned. Passionfruit, scorched cedar, violet, dark chocolate, musk in aroma and small cup. Crisply satiny mouthfeel; long, richly chocolaty finish supported by notes of violet and pleasingly smoky dark chocolate. In three parts milk, quietly complex and rich-toned.
Notes
Comprised of three washed coffees: an Ethiopia Geisha, a Guatemala Caturra, and a Colombia Castillo. HWC Roasters is a specialty coffee roaster based in Taichung, Taiwan. For more information, visit www.hwcroasters.com.
Bottom Line
A harmonious espresso blend that leads with notes of dark chocolate and tropical fruit with undertones of gently smoky aromatic wood; especially long, enticing finish.
