Blind Assessment
A pleasantly charred sweetness, buoyant and almost floral, dominates at first. As the cup cools the sweetness recedes and the bitter side of the dark-roast cup prevails.
Notes
Pleasantly charred sweetness, buoyant and almost floral. Jeremiah's Pick is one of several young coffee companies in Northern California that roast in the regional dark-roast tradition. Although this blend was not billed as a "French roast," its Agtron reading and flavor profile both put it on the outer fringe
Who Should Drink It
Film-noir and fog fans. I imagine Bogart drinking it at an Ocean Beach diner when the blonde first slinks in: fundamentally bitter with a deceptive sweetness at the beginning.
