From the Caribou Coffee website:
"This estate coffee is grown on the beautiful slopes of the Barú volcano facing the precious Boquete valley in western Panama. Sunny days and cool nights produce spectacular coffees alive with sweetness and floral nuance. The farm’s namesake is its founder Monsieur Gilbert Maunier (Môn-yay) de La Espriella from whom the farm was purchased by the current owner in the late 80s. Maunier was a flower specialist whose passion was his farm."
Okay, so there's that. "Roastmaster's Reserve" is the brand Caribou uses to imply "it may not be here tomorrow, so grab it now, ya lemmings." I try to be suspicious of all types of corporate jumbo, but I'll set that aside for now. I had a cup of this while getting ready for work this morning, and I wound up staying at home rather than bolting out the door. Essentially, this a good lighter roast, and sweet. I don't usually go for "light" or "sweet", but again, I'll make the exception here. I don't know how long this will be on the shelf, but fortunately you can grab a bag of the beans for now at the local Caribou.
