That is a long name for an awesome coffee.  I have reviewed Archer Farms coffees before.  They are Target’s store brand and I have been impressed with the quality of the special reserve coffees.

I found the La Violeta to be complex with a distinct, rich chocolate flavor that developed smoky undertones in the aftertaste.  It is a mild coffee with a bright acidity..and the aroma is as rich as …ummm…it is rich.  Really rich.

In fact, if I could only describe this coffee in one word that word would be….rich. Luxurious in the mouth the various characteristics develop slowly as you sip.

This is one I really liked a lot and will get again for sure.. It would be a great finish to a flavorful meal, and accompaniment to a rich dessert, or black with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream floating on top…

Or, just have it with your plum & white tea scones like I did this morning! Fantastic.
