​Brew Notes:
This coffee is full in body and nice and syrupy. If you like a lighter brew use slightly more water in the brew to help tone it down. The coffee chokes when heavily agitated, but doesn’t need it due to its high solubility. Definitely, a coffee you want to drink a mug of in the morning!
