Tasting Notes
  • The citrus sits up front and it is defined, not vague. East African brightness cutting through the Latin American base.
  • Caramel arrives mid-cup. It does not linger into sweetness. It fades cleanly.
  • Cocoa is structural here, not decorative. It gives the cup weight without pushing it dark.
  • The washed process keeps everything separated. You get distinct phases, not a muddy blend of all three notes at once.
  • The finish is clean. This is not a coffee that follows you around.

Who it’s for

The pour over drinker who wants a morning cup with brightness and definition. This also works for the espresso brewer who does not want to fight the machine to get a clean shot.

Who should skip it

Dark roast drinkers looking for intensity will find this under-built for their palate. If you want your espresso to bulldoze milk drinks into submission, Hologram is not that coffee.
