Cupping Evaluation
Cupping Details
Baked bread is the first thing that comes to mind as we sniff the crust. On break it deepens into baking spices and hint of teriyaki. Medium and smooth in body, it carries juicy stone fruit tones into stewed tomatoes and pears. Earthy notes of herbs and oak round out the flavor, drifting into a cedar finish that quickly fades.

Brewing Evaluation
Brewing Details
This coffee starts off smelling sweet and fruity. In the mouth it feels full and smooth, and a little juicy. Acidity, sweetness and bitterness find a good balance in the cup. The finish is reminiscent of cocoa and a little dry. All in all this decaf is sweet and full-bodied. Great for all hours, but perfect for the decaf drinker in search of a tastier cup.
