Yes. Just finished up a bag through my pour over and vacpot. Tasting notes are spot on. Berries galore.

How about as espresso? So far I've only gotten sour shots. I'm going to bump up the brew temp tomorrow and see if that helps. Right now I'm running 200F. I guess it doesn't really surprise me given how light the roast is.

Right at 201 the shots were awesome. Heavily fruited - blueberries and raspberries galore. A very slight bit of sourness was present but not overpowering. Bumped up to 204 to see how the flavors would shift. The fruit was still evident although much toned down. Both cups were very enjoyable and not overly bright. Kinda reminds me of the Idido Misty Valley from a while back with a bit less floral presence. Highly recommended.
