I have roasted maybe 15 batches of different beans. This one I felt like I really screwed up on, but I didn't do anything different. It wasn't roasting the way I wanted it to, and I had to go off of my normal timing and heating process. I ended up doing a medium-dark roast as the label did not specify. Roasted to 2nd crack, then up to 9 fan and 9 heat for about 2 minutes, then to 3-minute cool down. It is an extremely mild coffee and smells somewhat sweeter than many of my roasts. I made a cup of coffee tried it 3 ways:
1) Black- When I was brewing, I noticed very little "coffee" smell. It was more like a light nutty scent. It was ok, but this isn't a black drinking coffee in my opinion.
2) Added a tsp. of local wildflower honey. This gave it a bit sweeter flavor and added the flavor of the honey. This seems more like a "tea" to me, than coffee.
3) With honey and a splash of milk. This was my ultimate top choice and was a very nice, soft coffee drink and perfect for a cool spring afternoon.

Taste review: 10/04/2023
Roasted beans over open campfire - see review. MEDIUM ROAST
Used fresh Vermont spring water.
Used a glass percolator.
Consensus 3.5
Wife rated 3.5 better than OK, but not certain is was a LIKE.
I would say the same.
Has a very light chocolate and nutty taste but also fruity. After cooling it has an earthy-late taste, which distracts, in my opinion. Aroma is mild, it smells like a mid-strong coffee. I would drink it again, which is a positive. Best HOT.
Disclaimer:
Tastes are personal - I don't care for Dunkin or Starbucks coffee.

Very satisfying and smooth with earthy overtones and a hint of hazel nut. Great alternative coffee. Solid price point.

Just wow! I roasted this to a medium roast and if you love hot cocoa, this is your cup! It is SO chocolatey and smooth.
Seriously, I hope you keep it in stock because this is now my favorite coffee EVER!!!
And this is coming from someone who has drank only gourmet coffee for 40 years!
I did do dark roast and this is one that really needs to only be a medium roast to get the full flavors!

This is the first coffee I roasted. It has a very smooth taste, so much better than pre roasted beans. The flavor is like a very mild hot cocoa, for lack of a better description. Not acidic at all. I will buy again.

Preface, I’ve been roasting for 10+ years but not as hard core as others in the community. Trying to find THE bean; to-my-taste and proper roast has been a very fun experience. It wasn’t until CBC ran a sale on “earthy” beans and I thought what the heck and ordered Uganda, Guatemala, and others in the sale. First roast of those two beans I found my personal bean spot and am not looking back. ♥️

Delightful Coffee! I roasted it to 30 seconds after the end of first crack. Rich, smooth, sweet and fruity up front, without the acidity. Wonderful cocoa at the end. Not a bitter bean in the lot. I can hardly wait 'til the morning to have another cup!

Roasted between first crack and second crack. Bright, citrus and very aromatic. A cross between Kenyan peaberry and Ethiopian Sidamo. Its great value for excellent coffee.
Service from Coffee Bean Corral is excellent. The quality of the beans are excellent very bad beans.

Wow this coffee the perfect cross between Ethiopia Sidamo and Kenya Peaberry. Uganda coffee does not get the same billing as Kenyan or Ethiopian but its the just as good. Flavor profile is bright and sweet with notes of citrus.

Roasted to Vienna about 450 degrees F, end of second crack. Brewed in Chemex.
Hazelnuts, hazelnuts, and hazelnuts. And a little wine and cocoa. Delicious and sweet with good medium body. I’ll be coming back to this one.

For us, this has become our favorite coffee, better even than Kenyan and Ethiopian grades. Excellent whether roasted lighter or darker.

Roasted to beginning of second crack as suggested. Good coffee, but not my favorite so far. Great when blended with dark roasted Nicaraguan. I will be playing with this a bit more.

This is one of my favorites so far. The flavor profile is really good, and spot on to the description given by CBC. It's also one of my favorites to roast to Full city/ Dark. Also one of the favorites among my customers. We cant seem to have enough on hand, and definitely try to keep a good stock on hand
