Description
Whiskey Barrel Aged
Smooth, medium body. Bright citrus up front with a soft fruit aroma like apple and pear. The barrel aging lifts the natural sweetness, adds a gentle oak roundness, and lands on clean cocoa. No boozy blast, just quiet complexity and a crisp finish. Best enjoyed black to catch the delicate citrus.
A quick barrel note. Green coffee rests in emptied whiskey barrels before roasting. The beans pick up aroma from the oak, then the roast locks it in and drives off residual spirit. You get oak, a hint of vanilla like sweetness, and more depth without covering up the coffee.

Brewer’s note
The aroma? Incredible. The flavors? Complex and moving. The verdict? Absolutely! Click here for the full Brewer’s Review
Pour over at 1:16, medium coarse grind. If you use drip, keep it medium grind and skip the milk so the oak and citrus stay crisp.

Excellent flavor, not bitter or strong, just smooth taste.
