Blind Assessment
Sweetly pungent in the aroma: cedar, hints of dark chocolate and raisiny fruit. In the cup smooth mouthfeel but a little lean; richly bittersweet; continued hints of a rather dry dark chocolate and raisins. The flavor prevails over a mild astringency in the finish.
Notes
Processed by the traditional Brazilian natural or dry method, meaning the coffee was dried with both skin and fruit still adhering to the bean. Henry's House of Coffee is a family-run business that has been roasting coffee in San Francisco's Sunset district since 1965. Visit www.coffeesf.com or call 800-578-5282 for more information.
Who Should Drink It
