Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Richly sweet, floral-toned. Tea rose, almond, dark chocolate, date, cedar in aroma and small cup. Crisp, velvety mouthfeel; the resonant finish centers around notes of tea rose and cedar. In three parts milk, both chocolaty and floral, with undertones of aromatic cedar and almond.
Notes
Certified organic and fair trade. Produced from the Blue Mountain, Bourbon, Caturra, Catuaí, and Kabare 2 varieties of Arabica and processed by the wet, or washed, method. JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.

Bottom Line
A sweetly rich Congo espresso that leads with pretty floral notes, both in the straight shot and in milk.
