Reviews for Kaldi's Coffee

Richly sweet-savory, chocolate-toned. Dark chocolate, date, pralines, tiger lily, a hint of cumin in aroma and cup. Sweet-savory structure with gentle, round acidity; plump, syrupy mouthfeel. Gently drying finish is chocolaty through and through with undertones of pralines and flowers.

Evaluated as espresso. Deep, dark-chocolaty aroma turns crisper in the small cup, which co-taster Sean Kohmescher (90) read as dry, “limeish” and floral, Ken (90) as more orangy and anise-like. Rich, dry, very long finish with a clear citrus edge. Two parts milk revives a delicate and cocoaish version of the chocolate, rounding the citrus and flowers.
