Java is new to me varietal from Colombia that's both quite easy to drink and complex.
There is a subtle hint of wintergreen followed by layers of fruitiness including pineapple, peach lemonade, and a hint of iced tea.
A hint of something like yuzu lime brings a fresh citrus note, making the overall flavor profile more complex and engaging. Despite being a light roast, the coffee has a full body, providing a nice mouthfeel. It has a natural sweetness built into the citrus like a limeade/lemonade. To me this is a well-rounded coffee that stands out for its blend of flavors and textures, appealing to those who appreciate depth and subtlety in their cup.
Despite all these flavor descriptions here, it's subtle rather than smacking you in the face, and a nice break from some of the over-the-top co-ferments we're seeing from Colombia now.Cupping Method:196F, Hario v60, 18:1 (12.5 grams)

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.Cupping Method:Vietnamese drip, cream with no sweetener

Delicious. Definitely. Starts vanilla/roiboos and finishes honeysuckle jasmine. I get a little bit of lemon and a really nice bright burst of satsuma. Complex, floral, and delicious.Cupping Method:V60 pourover, 196F, 18:1

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.Cupping Method:Vietnamese drip, cream with no sweetener

A perfectly balanced but complex gesha. Great roast, well executed. Not a hint of bitterness in site. A lovely honeysuckle/jasmine florality, a touch of pineapple. Black tea is in the background. Naturally sweet with a silky mouthfeel.
You could drink this hot on a cold day like a fruity tea, you cold drink this cold on a hot day like an iced tea.Cupping Method:17:1, Hario v60, 196F. Seems like a pretty solid formula!

A really nice espresso. A little bit better to me than the espresso we had last week that we rated 4.5. So I think it’s a 5.
Very smooth, but complex. Milk chocolate, a touch of bergamot, blackberry.
A medium crema with longer linger. Medium body. Massive chocolate finish. Wife was happy with lattes. Made really nice iced Americanos where the chocolate was ever-present.Cupping Method:Mostly 95F pulls out of my La Spaziale espresso machine.

This roast makes a delicious espresso! Creamy mouthfeel, complex with layered flavors featuring chocolate, orange, a sweet acidity, and a brush of astringency. Strong flavor from start to finish. Vibrant, unique, and lively!Cupping Method:Moka espresso, cream with no sweetener
