Description

About the Blend Sunshine in a cup. Like a cup of warm glowing energizing liquid sunshine this coffee shines in its beautiful soft warming character. It is remarkably soft smooth and round in structure almost buttery in body notes. The cup is clean tasting and easy going, with nuance of orange, white chocolate, cherry limeade, graham cracker, and honey in the soft buttery easy finish.
