Blind Assessment
Bittersweet, deeply pungent. Scorched cedar, dark chocolate, grapefruit, plum and a suggestion of baking spice in aroma and cup. Roast-muted acidity; lean but smooth mouthfeel. Chocolate and grapefruit carry into a rich though drying finish.
Notes
This blend is 100% Rainforest Alliance certified, meaning the coffees that make it up were produced following sustainable ecological and socio-economic criteria developed by the Sustainable Agricultural Network, a coalition of independent, environment-focused non-governmental organizations. Caribou Coffee is a retail roasting chain based in the upper Middle West whose rather irreverent motto "Life is short. Stay awake for it" belies a serious approach to coffee. Visit
Who Should Drink It
Those who enjoy a roast-dominated but complex and chocolaty cup.
