This cup starts off with a deep, dark, fruity aroma that says “sweet.” The dominant flavors that stand out are milk chocolate with a touch of hazelnuts and brown sugar. The body is exceptionally smooth and silky, with a rich, buttery mouthfeel. There is a cocoa powder dryness on the finish with a real coffee taste mixed with a light citrusy tartness. This is a very elegant cup of coffee. Single Estate.

This unique espresso blend combines top quality beans from the 2008 crop to create a balanced cocoa-musty-nuttiness with a distinct bittersweet-grilled pineapple tone. The fragrance is chocolaty and powerful. The clean, strong flavors linger on the palate and compliment milk-based drinks.

We thought you might be interested in seeing the nice piece that Don Polec of Philadelphia’s ABC TV affiliate did on Peregrine Coffee on Sunday’s 11 O’Clock News. We love the segment, but we hope you don’t wince too much at the final shot….

This is a slightly unusual Kenya. The nose is floral and with a bit of citrus. The familiar grapefruit/blackcurrant combo that is typical of a Kenyan is evoked but what is most prevalent is a bergamot flavor. The dark chocolate backbone is present with a hint of washed out blueberry. The first impact reminds one of an odd Earl Grey tea.
