    The acidity and finish is really what makes this coffee from Benjamin Paz great.
    This was brewed for me at the Dune location on State Street in Santa Barbara.
    I watched the brew closely and noticed that it sat in the Origami brewer for about 4 mins (250g water), which is a long time for the amount of water.

    On the nose, I got a lot of dried fruit and jasmine. At the hotest temperature right after brewing it was well balanced, but the peach and mandarin weren't there. It was actually fairly bland in flavor.

    As it cooled, those notes really blossomed, almost to a point where it was too acidic with mandarin notes. I cooled it almost to luke warm, out of curiosity. That temperature brought out the most notes. I thought it tasted more like lemon zest then mandarin.

    Exceptional coffee.

    Cupping Method:Origami pour over at Dune location. Brewed by Dune employee. 250g water.
