    This is a solid Colombian from Tandem that I couldn't get to be great/spectacular despite a number of different approaches.

    It has a nice balance, mouthfeel, and natural sweetness. I would compare its overall flavor profile to a mulled cider. It's smooth and finish clean. There's red apple and spice for sure.

    I think the thing I couldn't make disappear was a note that I would say is almost like the skin of a red apple. So the apple's there but so's the slightly bitter skin. I think that's OK with an actual apple, given how much sweeter it is. Here's it's a slight detractor. Given how good the Colombians are from top roasters these days I couldn't score this above a 4.0.

    Cupping Method:I bought this coffee at the Tandem store and made it a lot of different ways, including camp coffee, pourover v60 and Chemex, and espresso.

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: 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.
