Raging Brews: The Smokehouse
A few weeks ago, we did a review on BaristaOnDutY’s Light Roast Vietnamese R16, which featured woodsy, tobacco and molasses scents highlighted by Asian spice, soft caramel, sweet raisin, and plum. The cup profile announced licorice, smoked wood, and some dark fruit - I know, I’m salivating! After a few days of rest, this coffee boldly expresses dark plum, berries, caramel, and honey – but this time around we paired it with a suggested lighter cigar – La Gloria Cubana Churchill 7×50 NT that lasted us for a little over an hour. Dive into Raging Brews: The Smokehouse.
You Are So Right About The R16 Resting Longer! Most Coffees Don’t Age, They Stale!! But That R16 Is Like An Aging Cigar! Gonna Have To Put Some La Glorias On My List Hadn’t Had One In A Few Months!
