own character and the flavor that develops during roasting\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe medium roast allows space for the mandarin and the coffee's freshness, while the sweet and chocolate-forward side gains more body and roundness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo our taste, the result is a very versatile coffee where neither fruitiness nor roast dominates the
