I don't get heaps of flavours slapping me in the face. I find this well balanced and very smooth. It can take milk well. I usually opt for black, this coffee works for both camps.
I drink dopio with this bean every morning. It is dark roasted but doesn’t leave any bitter aftertaste.
Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy Pele. Was there something particular about it that wasn't up to the mark? I know AXIL would appreciate the feedback. Cheers, Tim
Unlike other decaf beans, it was freshly roasted. I liked the fact that its roasting level is not too dark. It has a good fruity kick, which I really enjoy.
First time making decaf coffee roasted for filter. The pour over didn't go well, getting clogged very quickly by the fines. Not sure if a better grinder would help, but I think the decaf process makes the beans a bit more brittle. The aeropress worked well after some dialling in and I achieved a pretty good cup from there.
Of the four different coffees I bought this one stood out. Deep dark and fruity. Heart of Jesus .
Always curious as to how an espresso roast would work for cold brew. Had a nice full bodied and choc brownie fudge type flavour to it. Was fun to have for a bit.
Struggled to dial in for espresso as shots were coming out way too fast (both conical and flat burrs, grinding a lot finer than usual). Shots lacked body. However I tried in my Bruer cold brew dripper and really liked the results - lovely fruit flavours (peach, orange), black tea, hazelnut. 1 star for espresso and 5 for cold brew :)
Strong hazelnut aroma but that was the dominant flavour for me, didn’t get the caramel and chocolate notes.
One of my favourite espresso blends of all time - I remember trying this in 2013 at the Melb coffee expo, still as good as it ever was - smooth and chocolatey with hazelnut notes. Love it.
