Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Deep-toned, richly sweet-savory. Dark chocolate, dried raspberry, salted caramel, gently scorched oak, hint of sage in aroma and small cup. Plush, syrupy mouthfeel; crisply sweet-tart finish. In three parts milk, chocolate and raspberry notes harmonize with a salted caramel throughline.
Notes
A blend of coffees from Colombia, Costa Rica, Kenya and Ethiopia, roasted for espresso applications. In addition to his retail roasting operation, Aroma Roast Coffees, Simon Hsieh also operates Soaring Phoenix Trading, a business focused on purpose-built commercial espresso blends and high-quality single-origin coffees.

Bottom Line
Rich, sweet, savory, and deep, this four-origin espresso blend is richly chocolaty, nuanced, and complicated by a pleasing undercurrent of roast-roundedness.
