Blind Assessment
Delicate aroma with softly pungent cedar and sweet tomato notes. In the cup gently and crisply acidy, with distinct floral notes and coffee fruit that reads as a tart, chocolate-toned cherry. A simple but very pure coffee expression.
Notes
Joe Wells started his small-batch roasting business in a gas station because no one else in his part of the Florida Keys sold fresh-roasted coffee. His son Beemer contributed to developing the profile for this nicely roasted single-origin Papua New Guinea. Visit
Who Should Drink It
A soft, sweetly fruit-and-floral-toned version of the classic American breakfast cup.
