The Butterfly Effect blend celebrates the craftsmanship behind each component, offering a sensory exploration of its flavor profile. This is a blend of Hacienda Sonora and Santa Sofia resulting in a densely sweet profile with malic acidity and notes of brown sugar and cherry cordial when dialed. A well-dialed cup has a profile that has a malic acidity similar to red apples balanced by a medium-heavy body and intense texture with a lingering sweet aftertaste similar to milk chocolate.
Dial Notes:
Butterfly effect was a forgiving coffee to dial, meaning that it tasted good at a variety of grind sizes. I found it to be best at a finer than neutral grind size, where the sensory profile led with its body and texture supported by a malic acidity. I found notes of brown sugar, cherry cordial, and peach.Under-extracted brews of Butterfly Effect will be too bright without the sweetness to balance it - it particularly reminded me of underripe cherries.Over-extracted brews of Butterfly Effect will be flat and drying, especially in the aftertaste. When over-extracted it lost its juiciness and red apple-like acidity.
