Context

Produced by Edgar, the San Francisco lot represents a focused expression of craft from Obadiah Coffee. When evaluating coffees with profiles centered on cherry sweetness and dark chocolate, it is helpful to consider how these descriptors align with the broader flavor wheel. While dark chocolate notes often provide a grounding, cocoa-toned foundation, the presence of cherry sweetness suggests a vibrant, fruit-forward character that can vary significantly depending on the specific processing methods employed at the farm level.

In the specialty coffee industry, coffees exhibiting this particular combination of deep, bittersweet cocoa and bright stone fruit are frequently sought after for their balanced, dessert-like quality. By exploring these specific flavor markers, drinkers can better understand their own preferences and refine their palate. Whether enjoyed as a pour-over or a concentrated espresso, this offering from Edgar highlights the distinct potential found within the roaster's current selection.
