CUPPING
The beans have the fragrance of dill, green papaya, brown rice, bakers chocolate, nougat, saffron, rose hips, oak, vanilla, licorice root, lilac, saddle wood, moss, and dried mushroom
The grounds have the fragrance of white cranberry, rye, nougat, oak, balsamic, roasted date, rose hips, soil, saddle wood, lilac, bittersweet chocolate, ground beef, white grapefruit zest, and soy sauce
The aroma of this cup is of rooted date, brown rice, pinion, saddle wood, rye, nougat, brown beach mushroom, hazelnut, lilac, molasses, toasted coca nib, oak, and very faint note of paprika
This is a medium acidity coffee that is juicy with a creamy and velvety mouth feel
This is a high acidity coffee that is bright, sour, juicy, complex and a clean, delicate tartar fruit ate to it
The flavors of this coffee are of cranberry, toasted cocoa nib, lilac, dill, rye, saddle wood, ponzu, oak, nougat, sourdough bread, red grapefruit, rose hips, and Egyptian hibiscus.
As it cools the cranberry and ponzu come through more along with cream, saffron, fracked ginger and a subtle note of tobacco
CHEMEX
The aroma from a chemex is of subtle earth tones and chocolate with clover honey and chia
The flavors toasted cocoa nib, grilled mushroom, white cranberry, dried blackberry, rose hips, lilac, ponzu, and cashew
There is a sooth creamy body that it gives along with a slight chewy coating. The acidity is there but not as strong as when cupped. It is of tart berry and cocoa powder
The chemex is a much better way to make this coffee and also does not leave and residue on the cup or bottom of the chemx
FRENCH PRESS
The aroma is of wax, black tea, bacon fat, and soil
The flavors when done on a french press are of cold black tea, rye, magnolia, and bakers chocolate. There is a very subtle note of dried blackberry, and lard. There is a strong back note of oolong tea
Making it in a french press gives it a very weak body and no acidity at all
This does leave a residue on the bottom of the cup
* This is a very bad way to make this coffee *
