Blind Assessment
An understated dark-roast profile: distinctly bitter, but with a hint of elevating sweetness and an elegant little shimmer of fruit and flowers.
Notes
An understated dark-roast profile: distinctly bitter, but with a hint of elevating sweetness and an elegant little shimmer of fruit and flowers. "100% Arabica Coffee," according to the bag. The bag also describes the roast as "medium," but by American supermarket standards it is moderately dark. Sold pre-ground in a foil valve bag. Cost per ounce: $0.70.
Who Should Drink It
Dark-roast lovers too lazy to grind their own coffee and too busy to shop for a better dark roast at a similar price at a specialty coffee store.
