Full Cupping Notes

The dry grounds have a whiff of dark sugars. There is an accent of hazelnuts and bittersweet cocoa powder. The wet aroma is sweet and well balanced, with a hint of baked fruit.

In the cup, raw sugars sit on a bittersweet undercurrent. You get hints of cinnamon spice, red apple and D'Anjou pear. At the darker end of our roast the chocolate pushes to the front. Think Dutch cocoa and a high cacao bar, with a subtle berry hint.

Body is pronounced. It gives the cup a substantial feel. It brews up a sweet cup and makes a knockout espresso.

This coffee comes from La Libertad, Huehuetenango, Guatemala. It was grown at about 5,700 feet. Washed and dried in the sun on patios. Bourbon and Caturra. It scored 87.2 points.
