Lovely!<\/p>\n<p>V60: Brewed at a 3:00 minute extraction, this was a balanced and not overly sweet coffee\u00a0that had a nice, bright, lively citrus tang.<\/p>\n<p>AeroPress: Pure joy in this cup. As a concentrate, it was sweet, floral, and full of fruity\/citrus flavor, with no bitter or unpleasant flavors whatsoever. It was like drinking the sort of sunshine you feel on a beach\u00a0vacation!<\/p>\n<p>Chemex: This coffee had an rich aroma reminiscent of heavy cream (though not the flavor of cream). Delicate flavor of honeysuckle with an orange-juice finish; beautifully balanced and complex. I loved this.<\/p>\n<p>French Press: Slightly less sweet of a coffee than what resulted from brewing it in a Chemex; more tart, piquant flavor with a fuller-bodied texture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong>: Another winner from BeanFruit! If you enjoy citrus flavors in your coffee, this will definitely be your bag.
