Costa Rica Tarrazu Cafetales de Dota Washed

Costa Rica

Description

City+ and Full City roasting brings a muted brûléed suger note in sweetness that contrasts intense cocoa, and savory roasted nut flavor aspects. Chocolate and bittering cocoa powder notes show throughout the roast range, from semi sweet chocolate in the lighter roasts, to dark cocoa powder in medium, to brooding cacao bittering with high % cocoa solids at FC+ (likely into French for those desiring a really dark roast). This lot is a lower acid cup, trading in sharpness for rounded mouthfeel and the chocolate roast flavors mentioned. As the coffee cools off some, I pick up on a subtle fruit hint, caramelized sugar, raw pistachio nut, and chocolate biscuit. At darker roast levels, especially FC or FC+, the cup has a really nice low tones, and big body with a silky texture. Full City to Full City+ consistently make a nice chocolate-based espresso shot, and would function well for a body/bittersweet blend component too.
