A magnificent medium espresso with tremendous complexity. Has florality, fruitinesss around chocolate and syrupy character. A little bit of spice. Really outstanding. Excellent mouthfeel and a finish that lingers for days.Cupping Method:Espresso at Common Good Co., a coffee shop and co-working space in Waltham, MA

I love this coffee from Speedwll that's served at Clover Food Lab. Not sure if they still have it but my receipts show I ordered it at least 7x! -

Very smooth. No fireworks but something you could drink every day that's balanced with good acidity. Characteristics - I get milk chocolate and cherry. All pleasant.Cupping Method:Pourover at Clover Food Lab

The flavor of this decaf reminds me instantly of the holidays, and I can imagine myself drinking it with my family around the fireplace. I think that's because there's a prominent holiday spice and sugar plum flavor to it. It's also naturally sweet (a touch of maple?) and very smooth. A very good decaf.Cupping Method:On a cold, rainy day in September at Clover Food Labs

A very smooth pourover with a clean acidity in the green apple and grapefruit range. The grapefruit is light and pleasant and not the polarizing/rindy type. Same with the green apple - it's not so much that it's tart, just that the green apple flavor is very much there. It drinks more black tea at the front but there's note of chocolate in the linger. A very solid roast from Speedwell here!Cupping Method:Pourover at Commongood in Waltham, MA

Had 4.5 stars in my notes and ordered it at least 4x from Clover Food Lab. Don't see it available from Speedwell currently but other Palo Blancos available from other roasters. -

Super good medium blend, could drink this all day. Very smooth, chocolate with an accent of black tea. Not super complex but so smooth and balanced. Naturally sweet with a grapefruit and brown sugar accent.
Sometimes I dont view grapefruit as positive but this is the sweet type with no bitterness or rind. Perhaps a bit of blueberry, and a mid-palate touch of sliced almond.Cupping Method:As drip at Salt & Light in Groton, MA

I feel like I get two very distinct and crystal clear flavors from my cup, which are jasmine tea and grapefruit zest. Grapefruit zest meaning this coffee has bright, fragrant citrus flavor with a hint of bitterness.
It's a very smooth and easy-to-drink coffee. Deviates fairly significantly from the grape/peach fruitiness described by the bag, and I think it takes a bit more work to appreciate.Cupping Method:I had this pourover at Common Good Co., a coffee shop and co-working space in Waltham, MA.
