  • This is a complex roast-- hits high notes (lemon, citrus) and deeper (tart walnut with a bit of roasted hazelnut) notes. Well-crafted and enjoyable. There is a nice accompanying acidity. I would call this an excellent light roast, but I think it is actually a medium roast.

  • A unique and delightful masterpiece-- light roast flavors flow in this intriguing roast! The flavor profile centers around a rose/floral, with peach and graham as secondary flavors. There are touches of lemon, vanilla, and guava. This is a sweet roast with a nice acidity. It finished with a bit of astringency.

  • Wow, this is the most uniquely flavored coffee I've sampled! It is a bit hard to tease out from a single cup, but the flavors were distinctly melon-centric. I feel like I could taste ALL the melons at once-- watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew, balanced out with an underlying earthiness. The earthy/floral/melon aroma that accompanied the cup was an additional unique surprise. I imagine that a flavor profile this unique could be quite divisive, but I liked it. Less remarkably, there was a nice, sweet acidity and a rich mouthfeel.

  • This roast is a delight-- unique, complex, and delicious! Combining light roast flavors with a floral-forward blueberry / lemon and a lightly bitter dark chocolate, it is a pleasure to drink from start to finish.

  • This is an outstanding roast! I can tell it has been naturally processed, as the flavors are complex and a little earthy. There is a bit of tartness, some acidity, a light sweetness, balanced and strong flavor. Hard to dissect and pinpoint the flavor layers, but I would say it was reminiscent of key lime pie, lavender, and walnut.

  • This is a surprisingly flavorful roast! The flavors are crafted to perfection, featuring a lemony hazelnut, sun-ripened raspberry, and pineapple. Well-balanced and silky. A touch of astringency at the end leads to a clear and clean finish.

    I would say this roast leans much more towards light characteristics. Well-balanced, smooth, and flavorful with an underlying acidity. Refreshing flavor profile features a lightly sweet cherry with hints of fresh straw, black tea, and something intriguing I can't quite put my finger on.

    Wow! This roast is *so* good-- a layered masterpiece! I could tell it was going to be good from the first waft of the freshly ground beans. A bright acidity, sprightly tart, melds with a delicate sweetness and finishes with a nice, lightly lingering flavor. There were hints of cranberry, cherry, hibiscus, grapefruit, melon, and oak.

  • A unique, complex cold brew (with a can design that seems straight off the IPA shelf)! It hits with strong chocolate notes -- a slight bitterness bends the impression towards dark chocolate. The secondary flavor was a lightly sweet and tart raspberry. Rounding out the profile, there were hints of a salty smokiness with a light wash of malt. A masterpiece!

    Wow, I don't add any sweetener to coffee, so I really notice when a roast is sweet... and this was very sweet! The sweetness, paired with an unusually strong coffee flavor, makes this extremely drinkable. There was a bit of a light chocolate/nutty/citrus undertone. I'm ranking this coffee 5 stars, even though there is less acidity than I prefer, because it is really that good and I also give Del's bonus points for supporting Fair Trade arrangements with organic certification.

    Distinctly robust and flavorful! There is a strong sweet chocolate base, complimented by a light citrus undertone. The finish is a bit dry with compelling epilogue of roasted nut. I am looking forward to trying this roast in a variety of brewing methods to see what other flavors are unlocked. Usually I stick to Vietnamese drip, but tried this roast as a latte today, and I am quite pleased with the result.

    Distinctive and unique coffee! The intriguing and strong flavor presents as balanced throughout the entire cup, lingering pleasantly afterwards. It has a high, fruity taste that is unusually complimented with a distinctive chocolate undertone. This pairing works wonders, resulting in a thicker body, with a brisk flavor profile.
