I ordered this bag at the same time I ordered the Roseline Ecuador Rosa Encarnacion<\/a>, and I knew that as bright and divisive as the Rosa Encarnacion was, this Colombian coffee was likely to be completely different. I tend to gravitate toward Colombian coffees when I want something tasty and interesting but not too outside the box. I am used to tasting citrus and honey flavors in my Colombians, so I hoped this roast would fit the bill.<\/p>\n

Whole bean: Sugar. Butter cookie. Marzipan. Delicious tangy scent like clover honey. Wow!<\/p>\n

French press: This was sweet and rich with an undeniable note of citrus (tangelo).<\/p>\n

Chemex: All I wrote in my notes here was the word “bright.” I had a little difficulty with the grind size and had to make this coffee twice (I guessed too coarse of a grind). I’m going to guess that this was not my favorite brew method.<\/p>\n

AeroPress: Really thick and tangy brew that tasted strongly of both citrus and honey. I tried adding water but it immediately became bland, even with just a touch of it. Stick to drinking this as a concentrate.<\/p>\n

V60: With an extraction time of 3:30, this had the least amount of citrus flavor, which is good if you’re not into that. It spoke mostly of brown sugar and had a pleasant bitterness to the finish, which would go extremely well with a sweet treat.<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/strong> If you like citrus and honey, this is the coffee for you. It was lively and delicious with varying levels of those two flavors depending on the brew method.<\/p>\n

From the roaster: Panela, butter cookie, and citrus<\/p>\n

I am behind on posting reviews, so again, this coffee is no longer available on the Roseline website, but here’s a link to their online store: Roseline Coffee Roasters Online Store<\/a><\/p>\n
