Well I dialled in a bag of Rave’s Signature Blend and it tasted alright… to my limited palette anyway. The notes says chocolate, caramel and nuts and I have to admit there was definitely a real sweetness and I could detect back notes of dark chocolate and yes, even a slight hazel nuttyness to it. I really expected to be spitting it out and chucking the rest in the bin.
Instead, I’ve split it into 36g portions really quick into small frozen jars and will enjoy the rest. Given that, I’m hoping the other 6 bags will be as forgiving as there are some interesting ones there…
Sumatra Jagong Village, Sumatra Acehtengah, Papua New Guinea Elimbaria, Costa Rica Cascara Perla Negra Coffee Cherry Tree…Oh, and a bag of their Fudge Blend. Plus a bag of Columbian Augustino Forest Estate - this one is actually from York Coffee Emporium not Rave.
