Know Your Bean
Body (light, medium, full)
Body is the distinct texture and thickness of a beverage that defines how it feels when it sits on your tongue, sometimes referred to as mouthfeel. For example, hot chocolate has an extremely full body, while a beverage such as iced tea has a very light body. When it comes to coffee, dark roasts are often known for having a somewhat heavier body than lighter roasts, and Unconditional is no exception. Its full-bodied texture complements its sweet, nutty flavor to create a well-rounded coffee with a character all its own.
Acidity (smooth, balanced, bright)
Acidity is marked by the tangy sensation it creates on the back and sides of the tongue. For example, a tart citrus fruit has an extremely bright acidity, while more mild fruits would have less acidity, making them balanced like an apple, or smooth like a banana. Acidity is perhaps the most striking flavor characteristic in a cup of coffee. Unconditional has a bright start with a tangy plum-like flavor, and then finishes smooth for a lingering and pleasant aftertaste.
Roast (light, medium, dark)
Every coffee requires its own type of roast to capture the best aroma and flavor, so finding the right roast is as much a science as an art. Each variety of coffee bean is microbatch-roasted separately, then combined to create Unconditional. Microbatch-roasting guarantees that the beans are not over-roasted and never burnt, so every cup you drink will be rich with the peak flavors of the coffee. The blend used for Unconditional is at its best when roasted semi-dark, creating a full-bodied, bold flavor.
