I'm conflicted on this one. We didn't do a ton of cupping on this one, maybe 5 different roasts until we picked one because we had a short deadline, and landed on one kind of a darkish full-city, verging on vienna. Slow development phase, 8-10 degrees per minute ROR, gradually steepening into 2c which lasted only about 30 seconds.
1c was subtle and inconsistent.
A very acidic coffee at greener levels, so it was a tricky balance to not roast it too darkly, without also getting that mouth puckering acidity.
I've roasted this one before, form a different crop I assume, and it was a lot better.
I did have one customer remark that it was their favorite and they want me to stock it year-round. She was absolutely dead set that it reminded her of graham crackers and vanilla. I didn't get that, but I certainly didn't argue with a satisfied customer.
Lighter roasts definitely have more fruit-notes, I get some plum, but I didn't work at developing the citrus quality, because in my first few cuppings, all i got was citrus acidity without flavor notes. That kind of turned me off.
That being said, I'd try it again and play with it in the lower ranges some more. It's got a reputation for being pretty tasty, I just struck out.

I liked it a lot, one of my favorites. All different roasts are wonderful. Light Roast was very sweet and flavorful. The Darker roasts was sweet and rich. One of the easiest beans to roast.

First off, this coffee is delicious. I enjoy it light roasted. Sweet and unique. Flavor notes list plum, honey, citrus. I taste horehound with this one, which is perfect. Secondly, the caffeine content is the highest I've roasted. One cup will have you vibrating. And lastly, it's organic! Great single origin or as a top note for a blend.
