Coffee Reviews – written in plain English.

For instance, a coffee cupper might describe a coffee as having “aromatic cedar and chocolate notes with a toasty caramel finish”.

What does that mean exactly? To be honest, we have no idea.

While professional cuppers may write coffee reviews that are clearly understood by other professionals, we believe there is also a need for reviews written in plain English.

If we can achieve some small measure of success in writing these “plain English” coffee reviews, we’ll be happy.

Who does the tasting? I taste all the coffees we review, but rely a great deal on the far superior palate of my girlfriend, Johanne Tanguay. She tastes the coffee and I take notes. If we then compare our notes to what has been written about the same coffee by professional tasters, she is almost always spot on.

That's how we manage to write quality reviews, without a lot of the weird, technical jargon.

Finally, if you work for a coffee company and would like us to review one or more of your coffees, you can reach us through our contact page.
