Blind Assessment
Acrid, bittersweet. Carob, lily, raisin, scorched fir, green bean in aroma and cup. Burnt, bitter structure with only vague sweetness; thin, cloying mouthfeel. Ashen, medicinal flavor dominates the bitter finish.
Notes
A coffee of undisclosed origin, evaluated in pre-ground format. Founded by actor Tom Hanks to support veterans and their families, HANX donates 100% of its profits to organizations that provide resources and support to those who have served in the U.S military.

Bottom Line
A low-toned, barely sweet, quite burnt/bitter cup with a slight medicinal edge.
