SHG (Strictly High Grown)
Specialty Cup Score: 84.5
This Nerd Java El Salvador SHG Specialty coffee has notes of Dark Chocolate, Caramel, Dried Fruit, Almond, and Red Apple, and though it is naturally mid-acidic, we slow-roast this bean to perfection, reducing the acidity to make it gentler and easier to digest.
This is the brand’s first Blonde Roast and a welcome addition to the long line of Dark Roasts. This naturally sweet coffee bean has a starting Green Coffee specialty cup score of 84.5. The Blonde Roast has a solid low acidity of 5 on the Hydrion pH scale, while the Dark Roast has a super low 6. This coffee, in both Blonde and Dark, can be drunk black easily, even for non-black-coffee drinkers. The notes in both the Blonde and Dark roasts are Dark Chocolate and Caramel, with a Dried Apricot undertone. The nutty Almond and Red Apple finish make this a dynamic and balanced cup of coffee that is sweet to the taste. The Blonde roast brings the fruity notes to the forefront, while the Dark Roast brings out the Chocolate and Caramel.
