I cupped this test roast this week and was pleasantly surprised at the flavor ranges I noted in two test batches. I'll start with the City+ batch, where I found the dry aroma containing strong fruit. When I broke the crust, there was a clear berry aroma that I confirmed when I tasted it. As the brew cooled, I noticed stronger mango notes alongside the berries. At room temperature, I detected some bitter-sweetness finishing the flavor profile. At Full City, the berries and bittersweetness were more forward, but I relocated the sweet fruit notes in the middle as the cup cooled. I decided this bean will roast best at City+, but I will be cupping a City test batch over the weekend. Stay tuned!
