    A pleasant and convenient hotel room decaf nightcap that drinks light and smooth. A lot better than some recent hotel room coffee I've had. Wouldn't say there's a distinguishing characteristic beyond light and smooth. Maybe a very light peanut and milk chocolate. There's some very simple natural sweetness. I had never heard of 230 West before. Nice to see the coffee is Rainforest Alliance Certified.

    Cupping Method:At Marriott Courtyard Midtown West, comes as a filter pack for a Cuisinart hospitality brew basket.

    I dont mind this trend of hotels going for very neutral Arabica specialty grade coffee thats easy to drink after years of lousy robusta. This one extracts with some black tea and the slightest hint of peach.

    230 West Rainforest Select is an easy to drink coffee similar to breakfast blend thats light and smooth with low bitterness and acidity. The filter style is handy and could probably be steeped.

    Cupping Method:At Courtyard Marriott Midtown West. Coffee comes in filter pack.

    This hotel coffee was surprisingly decent. The flavor was pleasantly neutral and was just strong enough. There was a subtle old bean flavor, but the overall experience was pleasant.

    Cupping Method:as directed on the packaging, cream with no sweetener
