Blind Assessment
Crisply sweet, delicate, balanced but simple. Molasses, raisin, freshly cut fir, a hint of hazelnut in aroma and cup. Crisp, though rather muted, acidity; silky, but very light, mouthfeel. Sweet in the finish, though drying and rather woody.
Notes
Purchased pre-ground in a 12-ounce foil bag with one-way degassing valve at a Safeway supermarket in northern California. Safeway Kitchens is a brand of Safeway. Safeway is the second-largest supermarket chain in the United States, with nearly 2,200 stores in western and central United States and western Canada. Visit www.safeway.com for more information.
Who Should Drink It
Great price, but not much other reason to buy this sweet-toned but rather listless pre-ground Colombia.
