Another batch of Tinker Coffee

So I actually waited to try them before sharing this time. I'm probably being primed by the tasting notes on the package as I'm not doing blind tastings of anything but my quick thoughts:

Modor Lot 1: I get the grape and a floral character. Indeed I literately said, "Wow." when I went to brew it and I was blasted in the face with those smells as soon as the water met the grounds. There is more going on fruitwise which could be guava but I don't have guava in my experience bank firmly enough to tell.

Keramo: I got a rather faint and generic stone fruit and some floral character. This was probably the least impressive for me and part of that may have been the "mango candy" note that I was really looking forward to but didn't find.

Uraga Natural: I got a subtle strawberry and I'd call it more danish rather than doughnut but either way it was nice. This was probably my favorite even though it never made me say wow. Who doesn't like something that makes them think "Danish + Coffee"?

I think I preferred the first batch of coffees I got and it was probably because I'm not a huge fan of the florality which probably plays into the Uraga Nautral being my preference of the bunch as I didn't really get any in that. I enjoy florality just fine in wine and spirits but I guess the lesson is I don't really like it in my coffee.
