    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).

More Details

Roast Level: Light Medium
A Light Medium Roast coffee, sometimes referred to as a "City Roast" or "American Roast," lies between a light and medium roast. This roast level strikes a balance by preserving the coffee bean's unique characteristics while allowing for a moderate development of body and flavor. The beans have a medium brown color, exhibiting a slight sheen of oils, providing a more balanced and nuanced flavor profile. A Light Medium Roast typically highlights the coffee's inherent fruity, floral, or citrus notes, while also providing some of the deeper, richer flavors associated with medium roasts.
Bean Source Country: Mexico
Mexican specialty coffee is marked by its diverse growing regions, rich volcanic soil, and varied microclimates. These coffees often showcase mild acidity, medium body, and a range of flavors, including chocolate, nuts, and subtle fruit notes. Once treated as commodity beans, Mexico's shade-grown Arabica is benefitting from a more nuanced examination of its micro-terrain.
Bean Source Region: Oaxaca
Oaxacan coffee has lush mountains, rugged valleys, and fertile soils with altitudes of up to 2000 MASL. Oaxacan coffee has rich chocolate notes, nutty undertones, and delicate floral nuances, often complemented by subtle smoky or spicy notes.
