Sumatra Toba Batak

At light roasts the strong, rustic sweetness reminds of chicory root, molasses and sarsaparilla, laced with clove and cinnamon. There is dark dried fruit, plum, and a bit of rindy grapefruit in the lighter roast brightness. The body is quite syrupy and substantial. Darker roasts produce a dark malty note, as well as caramelized sugars and cocoa. Makes an outstanding single-origin espresso!
