This cup starts off with a deep, dark, fruity aroma that says “sweet.” The dominant flavors that stand out are milk chocolate with a touch of hazelnuts and brown sugar. The body is exceptionally smooth and silky, with a rich, buttery mouthfeel. There is a cocoa powder dryness on the finish with a real coffee taste mixed with a light citrusy tartness. This is a very elegant cup of coffee. Single Estate.
