Winter Special Blend 2012


Roaster: Akai-mi Coffee
Beans: Special Seasonal Blend 

【Impression】
Medium body, fruity aroma of apricots and plums mixed with almond's flower, weightless texture, smooth, crisp, wide range of mellow and juicy sweetness, mix of hazelnuts and cashew nuts, light touch of limes hidden, nutty bitterness as accent, juicy sweetness as a long lasting aftertaste.

【Note】
Special blends shares refreshing taste and a clean after taste based on seasonal impression as an accent. In 2012's Special winter blend,  India  creates core flavor: juicy and sweet.
Fruity flavor is well harmonized with bitterness and a tint of acidity.  After mix is now standard of independent roasters like Akai-mi coffee, since each origin/variety has its "best" roasting degree.

Blending means experiment.  House blend ensures stability in taste, requires blender's sense of taste; whereas, Special blends challenge tasters' palate.
