KALITA

The aroma of this cup soil, black tea, molasses, 

The body is weaker than being cupped with a slick and watery consistency

The acidity of the cup is very low and is still juicy with a soft floral and earthy note

The flavors of the cup are of black tea, bitter sweet chocolate, raspberry, black cherry, molasses, chamomile, dried tangerine,  malt, roasted tomato, vanillin, white cranberry, wheat germ, dried tobacco, black cardamom, and damp soil

I can not say this coffee is good in this as it brings this coffee down in every way. I belive that doing this on poor over to use maybe a Gino would be better but doubt it
