Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Richly sweet, gently roast-rounded. Baking chocolate, Fig Newton, gently scorched cedar, gardenia, orange zest in aroma and small cup. Crisp, velvety mouthfeel; chocolaty finish with undertones of gently scorched cedar. In milk, complex and invitingly nuanced with notes of aking chocolate, orange zest, and gardenia.
Notes
A blend of 70% washed Guatemala coffee blended with other undisclosed origins and named after a Hawaiian bird of cultural significance. Big Island Coffee Roasters is an award-winning coffee roaster operated with hands-on passion by Kelleigh Stewart and Brandon von Damitz. Visit www.bigislandcoffeeroasters.com for more information
Bottom Line
A deftly roasted medium-dark blend that highlights sweet chocolate and rich floral tones in both the straight shot and in cappuccino format.
