    Full Cycle Blend is a medium roast crafted for espresso with a smooth and balanced flavor profile. As an espresso, it features notes of blackberry jam and subtle raspberry, finishing with a touch of raspberry chocolate truffle. Medium but stiff crema contributes to mouthfeel. The acidity is well-balanced, complementing the overall smoothness, making it a strong café espresso blend. it doesn't quite have the standalone complexity of some of the recent espressos I've had, but this one seems very versatile.

    Accidentally brewed as a pour-over the first time, the coffee revealed a different side, with chocolate and sweet orange notes coming forward and a pleasant acidity. Its versatility and layered flavor make it a solid addition to the PDX Advent lineup!

More Details

Roast Level: Medium
Medium roast coffee balances the beans' natural flavors and the roasting process, providing a well-rounded taste profile. When selecting a medium roast, look for a balance of acidity and sweetness, with caramel, nuts, and chocolate notes and a medium body.
Bean Source Country: Americas Blend
Latin American coffee beans often have flavor profiles characterized by bright acidity, medium to light body, and fruity or nutty notes.
Espresso
Espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans under high pressure. It is characterized by its rich flavor and distinctive crema—the creamy layer that forms on top of the extracted process. When evaluating espresso, coffee experts often focus on key tasting characteristics such as aroma, flavor, body, and aftertaste. Aroma refers to the fragrant smells released during brewing, while flavor encompasses the coffee's overall taste profile, including notes of sweetness, bitterness, acidity, and richness. Body refers to the coffee's texture or mouthfeel, with descriptors like full-bodied, medium-bodied, or light-bodied. Aftertaste, or the finish, pertains to the lingering flavors and sensations experienced after swallowing the coffee. A well-prepared espresso is prized for its balance and complexity, combining these sensory attributes into a harmonious whole.
