This unique organic peaberry from Café Cascada starts with an elegant combination of aromas of fruit and nuts. Once in the cup, the flavors include cocoa, a mix of tart and sweet cherries, nut meat, malt, and subtle hints of spice and herbs. The mouthfeel has a light and airy texture and is perfectly balanced, reminding one of chiffon. Although not overtly acidic, a welcome brightness emerges as it cools. The finish is long with cocoa and tart cherry tones. This is a superb, very well balanced coffee.

This curious coffee begins with the aroma of sweet herbs layered with an earthy combination of nuts, meat and roots. The main flavor characteristics are deep, dark and savory, starting with bittersweet, dark chocolate. One particularly unique tone that comes through is licorice. The mouthfeel is dry and comes across as tight and compact. The hints of cinnamon, a little clove, and dark savory herbs follow through to the finish. This coffee improves greatly as it cools and is superb at room temperature.

This very interesting coffee starts with three very distinct stages of aroma: first the sweet fruit smell of the whole bean; then the flower perfume of the brewed bean; finally, the chocolate-caramel cup. The flavors are touches of sweet fruit, hinting toward apricot, wrapped with caramel. There is a combination of woody-nuttiness too (think cedar and hazelnuts) that continues into the finish. The mouthfeel is smooth with medium-to-big body. It is a very balanced cup, with light acidity and is the best coffee we have had from Mexico in recent memory.
