Blind Assessment
Crisply roasty in the aroma: gently scorched cedar, cardamom, with a softening hint of semi-sweet chocolate. In the cup lean but silky mouthfeel and a simple but properly robust impression of scorched cedar, spicy nut and a suggestion of dark chocolate. Finishes on the impressively rich side of astringent with good flavor persistence.
Notes
Melange Francais translates as French blend, apparently referencing the extreme dark-roasted coffees of northern France. Apres is a seller of gourmet teas, coffee and chocolate presented in impressively distinctive packaging at reasonable prices. Visit www.aprescafe.com or call 877-777-3451 for more information. Visit
