Clean, rich and semi-sweet, the cup is medium bodied with a little new crop winy acidity upfront. Hints of a grape skin like fruitiness with “before 2nd crack” roast levels. The crisper, brighter tones comingle with a semi-sweet very malt like dark tone. We thought best served in the medium roast ballpark, it will handle lighter or darker roasts nicely though. Light roasts will be a bit front loaded with brightness, turns the winy factor a bit more lemony and the malty tones a bit dryer, a sweeter edge to it. Darker roasts promote the bittersweet malt tones, heftier cup with a smoky edge.  Great balance right in the middle.
