🧷Coffee Blend of Guatemalan, Ethiopian beans.
Blind assessment:
Evaluated as espresso. Richly chocolaty, tartly fruity. Dark chocolate, pomegranate, lemon verbena, cedar, orange blossom in aroma and small cup. Plush, viscous mouthfeel; chocolaty finish with undertones of orange blossom. In cappuccino format, pomegranate resurfaces as a bold counterpart to the chocolate throughline.
The bottom line:
A lovely Ethiopia/Guatemala espresso blend that’s floral-toned, richly chocolaty in both the straight show and in milk, and sweetly citrusy.

Acidity explanation:
When customers ask us to recommend beans, the number one question is about flavor, and the number two is “Is this acidic?”
First of all, the feeling of the acidity varies from person to person. Once I met two guests. A said he would like to drink acid coffee, while B said he would not drink acid coffee. So I made a Natural Yirgacheffe Blue Donkey for them. A said that it was too acidic, and B said that it was okay. It is clear that there are individual differences in the sensitivity of acidity.
Since there are individual differences, is there any criterion for reference?
We generally use several fruits to make the evaluation from the least acidic to the most acidic. From 1~5 is strawberry jam, grapes, apples, oranges, lemons. So that the scores of relative acidity can help the consumers with a reference in purchasing.
