Descriptions:
This bright cup of coffee is sweet and spicy. Fragrances and aromas include everything from mustard, red pepper, cinnamon, dates, sugar, and nutmeg. The flavor delivers with the comfort taste of Chinese chicken and broccoli, leaving you with an aftertaste of soy sauce.
This coffee starts with scents of graham crackers, perfumes, and sweet tomatoes. The bright, yet semi-heavy textures mix well with the semi-tart tomato soup flavors. The aftertaste is reminiscent of the flavor, but a more watered down version.
Bready fragrance, milk chocolate and raisins in aroma. Overpoweringly bright for lighter flavors of tomato and celery. Watery body and a faded aftertaste.
This coffee tastes like lighter meats (chicken, pork), and veggies. An incredibly unique drinking experience; everybody should try this coffee.
A cool coffee with a flavor that changes drastically. Starts savory with flavors that bring chicken and broccoli to mind, as it cools, the acidity pops out more and brings deep complex fruits out. Sort of like a nice brandy.
Starts with a very doughy smell like bread, high in yeast. Very floral and starchy aroma. Finished tasting like buttered vegetables.
