Blind Assessment
A solid American-style breakfast profile: Dry and acidy but balanced, complete, closing on rich. Everything is up front, however: limited dimension and development.
Notes
A solid American-style breakfast coffee from a small roaster in Santa's neighborhood. Dry and acidy but balanced, complete, closing on rich. My gazetteer doesn't list a North Pole in Alaska, but it must be there because it has a zip code and at least one 800- number, the small North Pole Coffee Roasting Company.
Who Should Drink It
The holiday factor:A brisk, honest pancakes-and-eggs coffee with a nice red bag and a value-added location.
