Cupping Evaluation
Cupping Details
This coffee presents itself as primarily earthy and smoky in the nose, laced with dark chocolate and hints of dry fruit. Full and smooth, the body is mouth coating and even a touch juicy. Acidity is the first flavor experience, coming in a little sharp, but citric like lemon. Complex in its sweetness we find some rich tones of brown sugar, milk chocolate and a little whiskey. The low tones are tannic and spicy with some cumin, bell peppers and cola. Tannic sweetness lingers in the finish, shifting into a dry end.

Brewing Evaluation
Brewing Details
Herbs and Earth come to mind in the nose, as the fist sips reveal a full and rich body. Juicy citrus are pretty distinct but in balance with the malty caramel sweetness. The dominant flavor character is in its lower tones of chocolate, baking spices and a hint of smoke. The finish is long and pretty pleasant as malts dry into a dark chocolate. Overall this coffee is Earthy - Full Bodied - Baking Spices.
