Toa Blend

Beans: Blend, Toa Blend
Roaster: Hiroshi Ohira, Taruko-ya Coffee

Roast Level: Medium
  Cuba: Cinammon
  ColumbiaBrazil/Kenya: Midium high

【Comment From Web】
Combination of smooth, light  sweetness and sourness, brings picture of the woods and birdsong in morning haze, followed by sweet aftertaste and flavor.




【Impression】
Art of blending: well-balanced and harmonized.  Medium body, round texture with clear flavor.   High-tone and light touch sourness like grapefruits supported with smoky bitterness and nutty sweetness, sourness as long lasting aftertaste. 

This coffee was selected by a roaster, owner of Tarukoya, in a responce for a request following: "The best for morning cup without Mocha like sourness."  Considering Tarukoya basically offers bitter/dark roast coffees, it is understandable that Toa blend is categorized as Light taste.

【Roaster's Comment】
Mild bitterness with soft texture suitable for a morning cup, wake-up coffee, or a breakfast cup with a piece of toast.



【Impression】
Dark, full body, strong taste.  Round, moderate bitterness, sweetness of bitter chocolate, a touch of s oothing, lemon like sourness.  Bitterness remains as aftertaste, but light and cool impression.  Mainly, bitterness with sweetness.

If you are a fun of Indnesian coffee, this coffee is the one to pick.  Strong impression of Mandheling harmonize the taste of this blend coffee,
