Cupping Notes:
The sweet spot gets you a lemon/lime citrus flavor with pear, raisin, chocolate, and floral notes. Compared to many Costa Rica options, this one is brighter, less sweet, and more complex, more floral. I prefer it because it is a more interesting coffee, but if you are looking for the traditional caramel notes, it doesn't have that. So it is really personal preference, but everything this coffee stands for is worth supporting.
Roasting Notes:
This bean is best at Full City (Med-dark/med). The lighter roasts have a grassy/underdeveloped taste, or the taste of coffee-cherry (cascara) which isn't necessarily unpleasant, but it is indicative of an under roasted bean.
