OUR COFFEE
Coffee cartel offers you the finest coffee from only the best roasters and growers. We proudly carry Chauvin coffee and Espresso beans roasted fresh twice a week to ensure only the best for our customers. Chauvin Coffee Company utilizes their vast experience coupled with state of the art technology to give you the highest quality of coffee -- quality you deserve. Our Coffees are described by their unique characteristics of acidity, body, aroma, finish and flavor:
Acidity is the sharpness, almost a dryness, like some white wines.
Body is the heaviness or richness. “Body” can be compared to the characteristics of certain red wines.
Aroma is the
fragrance, an important quality, since you smell the
aroma before you actually taste the coffee. Aroma can
range from acidic or sharp, through spicy and sweet, to
earthy or musty or smoky.
Finish is the aftertaste coffee leaves in your mouth. Finish can be sweet and pleasant, bitter or, if the coffee is extremely light, it may have no aftertaste. Espresso should have a finish that lingers after the drink has been consumed.
flavor, the taste, the most difficult characteristic to describe, because it will vary with each individual. Since coffee will take on the characteristics of the soil in which it is grown, it will hint of other plants, fruits or spices grown in the same region, such as chocolate, vanilla and others. Flavor will greatly distinguish one origin from another.
