Blind Assessment
Molasses, fresh-cut fir, papaya, orange and baking spice, particularly thyme, in aroma and sweet-toned, very slightly savory-edged cup. Roundly bright, juicy acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates but persists richly in a clean, deep finish.
Notes
Coffees from the northern part of the Indonesian island of Sumatra are admired for their complex earth (spice in this case), fruit and aromatic wood notes that result largely from unorthodox fruit removal and drying practices collectively called wet hulling. This is a particularly refined version of the style. Flight Coffee Co. (formerly CQ Coffee Roasters) is a coffee-loving, quality-focused roasting company based in Bedford, New Hampshire.Visit www.flightcoffeeco.com or call 603-836-6228 for more information.
Who Should Drink It
Those who enjoy a complex, rather exotic cup dominated by molasses-like sweetness, tropical fruit and a hint of spice.
