Blind Assessment
A dry but lively dark roast with a nutty, spicy twist at its pungently roasty heart. Rather light, roast-attenuated body, but the finish is buoyant, almost effervescent, with a subliminal hint of chocolate.
Notes
A dry but lively dark roast with a nutty, spicy twist at its pungently roasty heart. Java Trading Company is a wholesale roaster enviably located on Mercer Island in Lake Washington, the large lake bordering Seattle.
Who Should Drink It
Those who like things that are both rugged and elegant. Intense without sentiment, pungent without burned tones, this coffee is energetic enough to please on holiday mornings but roasty enough to taste right in the evening with pie slathered with ice cream.
