I love this coffee because its exciting every time you brew it to see what semi-pungent odour will be emitted lol.

Its slightly rural and rich, i think spicy as well when i sniff the brewing FP. I don't get much banana though.

If you brew a French Press, try swirling the grinds after adding water with the handle of a spoon, then sniffing it.... eye opening!
