Product Details Return to Top Tasting Notes What do you get when you take the crisp, clean flavors of South American coffees and blend them with slightly wild East African beans? If you're lucky – and you are – you get our Fair Trade Summer Safari Blend, a spirited, slightly tropical take on summer. Rating: 87 Points (out of 100) Aroma and flavor highlight notes of gently charred aromatic wood, dark chocolate and toast. As the cup cools, soft fruit flavors emerge (citrus?) as well as a hint of leather. Roastiness lingers in the finish, developing a cocoa toned sweetness in the long. – Kenneth Davids, CoffeeReview.com, August, 2009 About Green Mountain Coffee® A great tasting cup of coffee can give you a whole new perspective. It's a moment to pause, reflect, and reprioritize. That moment is what inspires us to make coffee that benefits everyone it touches. From carefully sourcing and roasting the highest quality beans, to supporting small farms and protecting the environment, we focus on what's important. That's why we at Green Mountain Coffee® believe a good cup of coffee can change your day... but a great cup of coffee can help change the world.
