Blind Assessment
(As brewed in a Keurig B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule at a cup volume of 5.25 ounces): Sweet, round, toasty caramel aroma with a hint of flowers. In the cup very balanced: sweet, toasty, rich, with a hint of green apply tartness and pruny fruit edging toward chocolate. Sweet and rich in the short finish; turns slightly woody in the long.
Notes
Keurig brewing devices were among the first single-serve coffee brewers on the market. Keurig now offers three home models (www.keurig.com) with a wide range of coffees available in compatible "K-Cup" format. Green Mountain offers this particular coffee in an "Extra Bold" K-Cup, which means it contains more coffee than a normal K-Cup and brews a somewhat richer, heavier-bodied cup. Keurig/Green Mountain, formerly Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, pioneered single-serve capsule brewing in the United States with its Keurig brewing system, and remains one of the country’s leading large specialty roasters, offering a particularly wide-ranging variety of origins and roast styles.
