From the roaster

A rich, full-bodied espresso blend characterized by syrupy sweetness and chocolate notes, designed to perform exceptionally well in milk-based drinks.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This blend is a hallmark classic for the roaster and famously helped Heather Perry win the 2003 U.S. Barista Championship.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Blend structure documented

Recorded the five washed components at the level Klatch discloses—Indonesia and the Americas—without inventing farms, producers, cultivars, countries, or ratios.

02
Cup profile refreshed

Added the current flavor notes, price, availability, and the roaster’s extraction recipe. No standardized roast level was assigned because Klatch does not publish one on the exact product page.

03
Public sentiment kept separate

Excluded roaster-hosted, retailer-hosted, incentivized, and historical variant evidence from a current independent score.

What was added?

Current price and size, washed processing, honest blend structure, cup profile, competition context, and the roaster’s espresso recipe.

What wasn't added?

No standardized roast level, exact component country beyond Indonesia, farm, producer, cultivar, ratio, altitude, harvest, fermentation, or drying method was inferred.

Why it matters

The profile explains the blend’s practical espresso identity while keeping proprietary sourcing gaps visible and outside sentiment separate from house data.

What you might taste

Orange zest, semi-sweet chocolate, cinnamon stick, and walnut in a smooth, full-bodied espresso designed to work well with milk.
