Tasting Notes: BERRIES STONE FRUIT EARL GREY HONEYSUCKLE ROUND GEOMETRY This blend unites two Onyx favorites: a washed Ethiopia for bright florals and crisp acidity, and a washed Colombia for balance and sweetness. The result is a beautifully structured but bright cup with clarity, complexity, and a silky tactile. Perfect as a filter-style brew or an espresso-inspired concentrate, Geometry dissolves instantly into hot water or milk, delivering a refined, dynamic coffee experience anytime, anywhere. This is available in a pack of six pre-portioned bags of soluble coffee, which will readily dissolve into hot water or your preferred milk product. Roast Level: Expressive Light Nordic-style roasting is a moniker applied to the very light roasting style that many employ in Northern Europe, which Onyx calls “Expressive Light”. If a coffee falls within this category, you can expect a bright acidity that dominates the cup, as well as a silky but tea-like tactile and a sweetness that is light and short. BLEND APPROACH The approach to creating blends is a bit different at Onyx. Instead of choosing coffees from specific countries or regions that will, in theory, intertwine well to develop complex & cohesive flavors like most, they start from the end and work their way back. This perspective means they choose to create a particular flavor profile first. Once a flavor profile has been set- in this case, blueberry, lemon, and tea for Geometry- then they start cupping blind through a large number of coffees to find those specific attributes. With this blend, the Colombian gives us a syrupy, clean, fermented fruit flavor. It shows itself upfront and in the finish. Next, they add a washed Ethiopian to introduce more fruit and complexity. The purpose is that once a flavor profile is created, they can update the coffees that make up Geometry every 2-3 months. This allows a year-round blend with a flavor profile of high quality while retaining Onyx's commitment to seasonal coffees. This vigorous amount of cupping and blending takes a considerable amount of time, it makes the difference and is a system they use for all our blends. Feel excited that the coffee you are tasting is always in season, and therefore, it is cupping and tasting to its full potential. WHY INSTANT?
