Blind Assessment
A very light roast preserves the essential meadowy sweetness and delicacy of this quiet, pure coffee. Notes of fir, honey, molasses and cherry in aroma and cup. The acidity is light-footed and sweet-toned, the mouthfeel silky. Surprisingly rich finish with a very slight woody flatness in the long.
Notes
This coffee is certified organically grown and Fair Trade, meaning it was purchased from small-holding, indigenous farmers of the Maya Ixil cooperative at a "fair" or economically sustainable price. JBC Coffee Roasters (formerly Johnson Brothers Coffee Roasters) is a distinguished small-batch roasting company. Visit www.jbccoffeeroasters.com or call 608-256-5282 for more information..
Who Should Drink It
Those who enjoy the charm of new, simple white wines. Most definitely not a coffee for those who like the pungent taste of the roast.
