Preparation for the World Cup? We wish Guatemala would be in this time around. So, let's just call it the spirit of the game. Today, we try the San Francisco based Sight Glass to our classic Kuma in Seattle. As these are both Latin American Coffees, we are probably going to get a close flavor profile, and the roasts don't look too different. I will say I found two quaker beans in the Kuma, but plucked them to not spoil the treat (shoutout to Brendon who introduced me to the concept and term).
The crema looks pretty close:
here is Kuma:
here's the Sight Glass:
Tasting notes: the Sight Glass El Meridiano, Tolima from Colombia came off slightly less fruity, but a lighter body, with elements of spices such as nutmeg . The Kuma Guatemala Hunapu came off much more cherry-like tone, with a crisp bite of tang. I think both Brent and I are feeling more into the subtleties within the Sight Glass, whereas the Guatamala's boldness would be best for those who like hibiscus tea, or something citric as such.
