Cupping Evaluation
Cupping Details
Our noses are met with sweet caramel and herbaceous earth. The body is full, but has a hint of chalkiness to it. The acidity is mild with a nice orange citrus glow that bridges well into a clean cane sugar sweetness. Caramel low tones remind us of molasses and cola and stick around in the aftertaste where they are joined by dry cocoa notes.

Brewing Evaluation
Brewing Details
Caramel and chocolate fill out the aroma, as first sips reveal a round and juicy body. The citrus acidity comes into balance in this brew as the sweetness deepens into rich malt and caramel. Subtle undertones come in, reminding us of dark chocolate, cocoa and nuts. The finish is long and pleasing, fading into a nutty caramel. This coffee is: Juicy - Sweet - Nutty
