Aroma
Caramel and Honey. Aroma refers to the smell of the coffee. It is responsible for many of the flavors perceived by the tongue.
Flavor
A balance of nutty and caramelized flavors. Describes the overall and combined sensations / perception of the coffee's distinctive aromatic and taste characteristics, the fusion of body, acidity , aroma and aftertaste.
Body
Medium Bold. This describes the physical property- heaviness or mouthfeel- of the coffee coating the tongue.
Acidity
Slightly Acidic and fruity with medium-low bitterness. Without acidity, a coffee will tend to taste dull and lifeless. A good acidity will lean towards being sweet, crisp and tart - each enhancing the other qualities in the coffee.
Packaging
Remember it's the one in the Gold Bag. Packaged in a foil bag with a one way valve engineered to release gases and prevent air from entering the bag which ensures freshness and optimal flavor. The bag which includes a resealable tape is ideal for storing beans in the original packaging helping the beans stay fresh after opening. Beans will remain fresh in this bag for 3 to 4 weeks after opening.
Storage: Never store beans in a freezer because the moisture will adversely affect the taste and the moisture can clog your grinder. Beans will also absorb the flavors of nearby foods.
