Cupping Notes: Newly Acquired Coffees

As many of you may know The Roasterie has a line of micro-lot coffees called The Roasterie Reserves. These coffees are purchased in small quantities and are chosen for their unique flavor profiles. We just love tasting and buying new coffees and this program gives us the ability to always be on the hunt for something fresh and exciting.

We are launching our new Rwandan Cup of Excellence today as a matter of fact. This is an amazing coffee which I spoke of in my previous blog.


Below are the cupping notes for two more Reserve coffees that we have recently purchased which should be available in the next month. Enjoy:


Brazil Fair Trade Organic Coorpol Natural
Major pleasing tobacco hints, gentle sweetness, medium low acidity, spicy complexities, delicate fruit notes as it cools, quiet hints of almond.

Tanzania Ruvuma
Great aroma, complex, full body, mega fruits, peach, apricot, sweet, sweet honey on tongue, bright in the cup, lush finish, pronounced peach hints as it cools.
