6/19/09 Cupping Notes

After a long sleepless night, we bring some lightness to the day by cupping our new arrival Costa Rican and the always delicious FTO Peru:

FTO Peru Selva Andina: Aroma- Notes of pepper, slight tobacco. Flavor – plums, dates, light berry sweetness, hints of floral. Finish – Berry, Juice like.

Costa Rican Palmares Centro, Microlot: Aroma – Sweet, rich, deep caramel. Flavor – light raspberries, hints of bittersweet chocolate, nice spice notes, light mango, subtle orange citrusy notes, muted sweet potato. Finish – fruit/ berry, syrupy.

We really could not be more satisfied with these two coffees. They both provide depth and flavors ranging all over the pallet, creating a dynamic experience for everyone and anyone to enjoy
