Coffee tasting: First shipment plus second shipment!

My kids know me- and my beloved- we're being supplied with caffeine as we continue to camp out.

#1 daughter and his family had us shipped BIG tin of coffee-- and tin of buttery cookies to go with*.

#1 son and his family sent us a coffee subscription, the first shipment arriving after we'd finished the big tin :-) Grandchildren created deep mugs for us to use to enjoy!

Here are my first impressions of the coffee roast of the month:

 January 29th- still the first month!

Lazy Bird

Top notes: Candy, Black Cherry, Pear

Process: Honey

Whole bean ground just before brewing.

Prepared in stove-top percolator. 

Color: Dark amber

Fragrance: Rich, dark

Flavor: Smooth, light, hint of sweetness.

February 20: Second shipment arrives


I had the coffee pose for picture with stove-top percolator in the background, as well as the decorated mugs from the grandkids!

Frog girl 

Top notes: Honey, pomegranate, praline

Process: Bourbon

Whole bean ground just before brewing.

Prepared in stove-top percolator. 

Color: Dark amber

Fragrance: Smokey, dark

Flavor:The process must have more to the flavor (for me) than the top notes; this was deeper, more smokey. Delicious!

More as the flavors arrive!
