Their tasting notes description
Chewy and full bodied. Well balanced and versatile coffee with a sweet cremy finish. Blackberry Jam, ripe plums and chocolate. In the cup, you can expect a seriously jam-like, creamy coffee. The coffee has a toffee finish too, long and sweet for that heavenly, easy-drinking vibe that we all love so much. You’ll find that this coffee is very soluble which means you can play around a lot with your brewing parameters and get differing results. If you like very heavy body and want to bring out the sticky, plum like sweetness, you can do that. Brew with more water and you may reveal a pleasingly zingy acidity. Good with milk and in all brew methods, this may well end up bing your go-to brew.
Their notes notes are - Blackberry Jam, Ripe Plum and Chocolate
I don’t usually look at the notes while opening a bag.
What can I say except it is spot on. Excellent IMHO. I got crisp and fresh acidity - I thought this along with the aroma are as in Mandrin. They said it’s Zingy acidity (citrus family and Mandrin are consistent). The fruity taste brings fruits like Plums out. I won’t say the fruity taste is like ripe Peach or ripe Nectarine as they are on the milder side than plums. It is smooth, juicy, sweet and creamy from start to finish coupled with milk chocolate like after taste. The sugary taste does remain for a while.
Lovely coffee in a nutshell
17g, 40.3g liquid, 91.5C Group, 97.5 Brew and 33s. I tightened the grind to the lower end of the espresso range after seeing how light the beans looked.
