One of my favorite coffees of the year, Shapeshifter is a nano-lot from Nonesuch Coffee, a Brooklyn micro-roaster. Nonesuch describes as coming from a 2.5 acre lot, which seems almost impossibly small! We were blown away how unique and delicious this coffee was.
I drank Shapeshifter with my partner and we called it "Watermelon Sugar Pie" as I thought there was a distinguishable watermelon acidity that turned into brown sugar, and then a nutty/lime finish. It's a very clean light roast that reminds me of some of the excellent Nordic roasts we've been seeing recently.
This was a very unique and delicious coffee, and we hope to see more from Nonesuch in the near future!Cupping Method:Hario v60 2x

This is a superb light roast! Extremely well balanced, with high notes, a sweet acidity, rounded out with a deeper roasting flavor. Flavor profile holds up throughout each sip and cup, ending with a light finish that clears out quickly.Cupping Method:Vietnamese drip

I like Sunny Day as an omniroast that's versatile and something universally likeable. If you have someone that likes coffee but hasn't moved much beyond your standard Colombia Supremo or Equal Exchange Mexican, this is something they're going to like.
It has a peanut/cocoa aroma pre and post grind. It's smooth, sweet, and easy-to-drink. I get milk chocolate, almond, and valencia orange making it as pourover. It has a very smooth mouthfeel and a good amount of natural sweetness. Personally, I like a bit more acidity but a lot of folks are going to like this as filter/pourover.
I also really liked it as espresso. The orange character deepended, and there were some notes of tamarind and blackberry 3/4s of the way through the palate. It pulled a nice light medium crema that was sticky.
I've had 3 roasts from Nonesuch but I really trust the roaster already to get the most out of the beans (Shapeshifter was the best Peruvian coffee we've ever had).
