Blind Assessment
Very sweet, caramelly aroma with milk chocolate notes and hints of earth and cedar. In the cup richly acidy, with continued caramel and milk chocolate notes. Rather limited in nuance but not a lazy cup; a simple, straightforwardly pleasing gesture.
Notes
Little City is an Austin, Texas boutique roasting company with two cafe locations and an irreverent attitude. Example (on the Little City website): "ALCOHOL WARNING: If you consume 3 or more alcoholic drinks every day, you may need to double the recommended dosage of caffeine. Ask your doctor or co-workers." On the other hand, the site is rather vague on coffee geography: New Guinea is confused with Java. Visit
Who Should Drink It
Those who wear simple clothes by choice.
