Pure Guatemala – Larry’s Beans October 16, 2008
This was my third bag of Larry’s Beans in a row, and by far my favorite. The Pure Guatemala is a lighter roast than the other Larry’s Beans I’ve tried, and I think it did the trick. I didn’t taste that overly smoky coffee flavor I didn’t like in the Bean Martin. This stuff just tasted like good coffee.
I might also be a snob for single origin beans. I like the idea that it’s all the same quality bean, same source, same taste. Maybe I can’t taste the difference and I’m generalizing it, but all my favorite coffees in the past have been single origin. I’m going to try another blend next time with a lighter roast, see what I think.
Regardless, this is some great coffee. Nice and crisp, perfect for a morning cup. There’s different levels of flavor, it really hits hard in the beginning with a strong coffee taste, then a more mellow chocolate flavor lingers. Give it a try if you’re looking for a good way to start your day.
