Steiner & Kovarik


Colombia 77%
Aroma: graham cracker, toasted grains, malt, sorghum molasses, brown sugar
Flavor: Malt, caramel. Rye bread, fermented grains - a little sour. Nuts – walnuts, pecans. A slight dry woody astringency. Some bitterness. Lime zest, graham cracker. Some slight astringency, spice and tropical fruit, licorice.
Recommendation: Recommended with reservations. It is interesting and unusual, which sometimes makes things worth trying. There are pleasant flavors, but the coconut sugar flavor is so distinctive that it overshadows the other flavors. There is also some slightly unpleasant astringency and bitterness.
