Roasting Notes: An easy cup to roast, right around second crack is a good starting point for a more robust chocolaty cup. Hold up lighter as well, more delicate cup in the light-medium roast range if the fuller roasts are too hefty. Very low chaff and fairly even roasting. A couple extra day setup time helps reduce any sour or floral tones if shooting for the lighter roasting points. |
Cupping Notes: A very nice light to dark roast decaf. Lighter roasts are sweeter and more delicate, a little unique spice with a bit of nuttiness and just a pinch of floral. Medium roasts are a smoother cup, a little sweet edge, nutty, with a touch of chocolate. Has a little floral overtone that makes it a bit interesting. Fuller bodied with a richer chocolate tone closer to 2nd crack. Some smokiness at second crack or into but retains its smooth and rich character. Decaf Mexican is always one of my favorite beans to get a nice and strong chocolaty note in the decafs. Lower acidity and fuller bodied, pretty hefty in its semi sweet bakers chocolate tone at fuller roasts. |
