  • Summary

  • Hopefully, Episode 01 (Conscientious Tasting) inspired you to be a little more present with your coffee and begin paying attention to your senses as you enjoy your cup. It’s a critical first step in enjoying your coffee more. Episode 02 (Aroma and Taste) is all about providing some tools and language to begin describing the key attributes your coffee has on display, using memory as a reference point as well as the Coffee Flavor Wheel.

    In Episode 02, we enjoy a cup of Sumatra from 81301 Coffee Inc. in Durango, CO. This independent coffee roaster and cafe is pretty close to home for me. This coffee, which I’m told was shade-dried on patios for a cleaner flavor, is super bright and acidic with lemongrass and a hint of peppercorn if you look for it.

    I brewed it in an AeroPress, a nifty hand-brew method that is super portable and yields very rich and tasty coffee. I referenced a recipe from the 2018 Portuguese AeroPress Champion, called “Love me some acid”, due to the brightness of this particular single-origin coffee. I hope you’re able to get a bag of it to sip alongside me as you listen to Aroma and Taste!
