What do the tasting notes on the label mean?

Does coffee really taste like milk chocolate, berry yogurt, and lemon loaf? Not totally. So why do we include flavour descriptions on our coffee labels? Because it helps us describe 3 things: the sweetness, acidity and mouth feel of the coffee. We just want to be completely honest. Coffee tastes like coffee. However, not every coffee tastes or feels the same as we drink it. in fact, some are WILDLY different. When picking coffees to roast for our wonderful customers and cafe, we want coffees that offer great sweetness, acidity, and body. When describing what makes these coffees unique we reference flavour memories of foods, fruits and drinks we know and love. There is a reason why your brain triggers flavour memories, and that is because the aromatics, and flavour of the coffee are communicating what they taste like. Our biggest tip for coffee tasting is to let your mind tell you what you are tasting, whatever pops into your head wether it makes sense or not, theres a reason why the coffee is triggering that. If you were to hang out with us while we are coffee tasting you would hear us say, "the acidity reminds me of cherries", or "This sweetness reminds me of apple pie", or "this coffee feels more thin and smooth in the mouth, reminding me of earl grey tea", or "This coffee has a creamy mouth feel, yet theres a slight tartness like raspberries, makes me think of berry yogurt". So to recap, does your coffee taste like milk chocolate, berry yogurt and lemon loaf? Not really, but its sweetness  and acidity might remind you of milk chocolate, and berry's and the mouthfeel of the coffee may remind you of berry yogurt, and that subtle acidity/sweetness at the end may remind you of lemons, but not summer time lemonade stand lemons, more like a cold winter day baked lemon loaf kind of lemon.
