Cupping Evaluation
Cupping Details
The aroma is reminiscent of sweet bread and brown sugar. A juicy and smooth body with medium/heavy weight adds appeal. The acidity is intense with notes of strawberry, orange, and tart stone fruit. Sweet caramel apple is complimented by a strangely appropriate doughnut note. Bitterness is low, with hints of nuts and leather. A lightly tingling aftertaste leaves you with the reminiscence of doughnuts and bread.

Brewing Evaluation
Brewing Details
A chocolatey sweet aroma encourages you to take a sip. On the first taste, the body is clean and mellow, and a pop of acidity is present on the front of the tongue though it becomes subdued as the coffee cools. Overall the best word for this coffee is "balanced" as all of the tastes match well and don't overpower each other. In the end a mild sweetness lingers and brings you back for more.
