    Blind tasting as part of the Leaderboard S12 game.

    This was the most unique coffee the Leaderboard game this season, and really something I haven't seen before.

    I got nutty, figgy, red apple, banana, and peach. So fruity and super funky. It has an incredible tropical aroma. It's a bit oddly structured and the mouthfeel is very different from your normal clean, fruity, black tea pourover. But I liked it.

    Aroma is amazing but a bit odd. Smooth.

More Details

Roast Level: Light
Light roast coffee is a delicately roasted coffee that retains more of the beans' natural flavors and characteristics. Light-roasted coffees have bright acidity, complex fruit, and floral notes. Light roast coffee does not have less caffeine than darker roasts because caffeine levels remain stable during roasting.
Bean Source Country: Colombia
Colombian coffees are known for their balanced taste, featuring bright acidity, medium body, and a range of flavors, including fruity notes, caramel sweetness, and nutty undertones. Colombia's worldwide reputation for producing great coffee at scale is well-deserved. Increasingly some of the best microlot specialty roasts are coming from Colombia thanks to their expertise in cultivation and process.
