Tasting Notes
Fig, Marzipan, Dark Chocolate
Origin
Guatemala and Brazil
A darker-than-we-normally-would-roast Brazil combined with a lighter roasted Guatemala. Originally developed as an antidote to our light roast espresso style. $15.65/lb or $11.75/12oz

When we started developing this blend we weren't quite sure how this combination of a darker Brazil and a lighter Guatemalan would go over (Geoff our roaster thought the results would be, well, a Train Wreck).  It seemed counter intuitive and at first we thought a lighter Brazil and darker Guatemalan was the way to go.  The results surprised us and we ended up loving this blend, especially as espresso.  Notes of fig, dark chocolate, and marzipan combine in a nice heavy bodied espresso.
