PassionHouse Guatemala La Bolsa Mirador - Clever preparation

No, this isn't a repost! We decided to see if the PassionHouse Guatemala La Bolsa Mirador had more subtlety on the Clever coffee dripper. We steeped it for three minutes, and used a courser grind. Compared to this morning's aero press, this had more crisp acidity and juiciness, lighter and a little less chocolately. 

We had different ideas on which preparation mode was better; I figured that the lighter  clever version was better, Brent preferred the aero press. No change in rating.

Afternoon's Brew - PassionHouse Guatemala La Bolsa Mirador

Another mid-western roasted coffee, from Chicago from PassionHouse. This one was procured from the Tougo Coffee Co., which are a great source, with shifting micro-roasts.

PassionHouse Guatemala La Bolsa Mirador.  Preparation method was Aeropress.
Not brassy, like the band, rather smooth and sweet. Notes infer that we should taste some cherry, which was observed to be almost floral.
