1 lb. - 10 lbs. Zambia Mafinga Peaberry NCCL Estate Fresh 100% Arabica Coffee Beans @ Various Roast Levels

Cupping Notes: Chewy, luscious bitter-sweetness, molasses, cocoa powder, Tootsie Roll taffy, subtle hints of fruit and fresh herbs, with moderate acidity level. Best @ City (light) through  Full City+(medium/dark). Great for espresso. Excellent @ fine, espresso, and Turkish grinds.

The dry fragrance has a pleasant bittersweet core, with a faint fruit note, and toffee-like sweetness. The wet aroma has similar toffee/caramel appeal, with substantial cocoa roast tones behind it, and an herbal accent that twists through the steam.

The flavors are well balanced, and this Zambia peaberry lot has a moderate level of acidity which adds to the base flavors. After cooling off a little, the cup offers a subtle dried fruit note, and an herbal hint comes into play in aroma. While light (city) and medium (full city) roasts capture the acidity/bittersweet combo, this Zambia peaberry also makes a delicious dark/espresso coffee with a medium body, smooth finish, citrus and chocolate notes.
