Whatever the roaster means by “Special edition”, it probably deserves this term, as the taste was truly unique. The comparison to PEZ candy (as seen on the bag) is an interesting one, although personally I’d call it a mint flavor with a touch of something green and vegetal, like celery — but in a very good way. It was so strong that it persisted even when sipped right after eating a sweet dessert. Usually, when your taste buds are overwhelmed by sugar, even the most intensely flavored coffee tastes almost like water.
It’s worth noting that this taste was achieved without any tricks, such as infusing the coffee with fruit. It’s a trend I’m personally not a fan of.
By the way, I really appreciate thoughtful touches like the dog paws at the bottom.
The pun on PET plastic is probably intentional.
