Deep notes, but needed cream to balance. Consistent flavor that did not deliver as strong of a punch as I was hoping. It has a nice, thick and smooth feel, which may be attributed to the chicory root fiber listed as an ingredient. The finish was a bit bitter.Rated: 3.00

A lighter-feeling coffee with an average flavor profile. There were high textures of acidity/ bitterness that rolled through each sip, finishing with a clear flavor.

The flavor was relatively weak, leaving me wondering if I brewed it correctly. The coffee was balanced, dry, and not acidic, but I prefer a stronger flavor.

Unique but relatively weaker flavor, with a dry finish. I was left wishing for a stronger flavor.

There is a hint of an interesting taste and a clean finish, but, otherwise, this tasted like an instant coffee that I wished was more flavorful.

Each sip opens with a light sweetness, moves to hints of caramel and chocolate, but unfortunately ends with a pervasively bitter finish. I don't recommend this roast for cold brew. I am curious to see if a different brewing method would depress the bitterness.

This was my first time trying steeped bag coffee (I used hot water brewing method). This brew, unfortunately, came across as weak and bland. It was a smooth, even drink with low acidity and no bitterness, but limited flavor.

The flavors in this roast trends a bit more dark. The flavors are also relatively muted, so I recommend using extra beans to get a more robust flavor. There is a very distinctive and identifiable aroma, which may be the best feature of this roast. The the lingering and slightly bitter finish is a a bit unpleasant. If you like coffee that tastes like what you'd imagine you get at a generic American gas station then this is the roast for you!
Cupping Method:Vietnamese drip, cream with no sweetener

This is definitely better than gas station coffee, but still something I drank with a bit of a grimace. It was noticeably weakly flavored, but did not have any other negatives like bitterness or burnt.Rated: 2.00
