Pumpkin Pecan - Raven’s Wing Coffee Review

There are two dominating flavors of fall – pumpkin and pecan. And while the whole world falls into a pumpkin craze, us Texans love our rich, sweet pecans. Raven Wing’s Pumpkin Pecan Coffee has combined these two icons to bring you an instant fall classic. 

We have brewed several coffees from Raven’s Wing and have never been disappointed. As soon as you open the bag you are hit with a strong waft of pumpkins and pecans with an after note of sugar. After brewing Pumpkin Pecan to our usual specs – 50g medium-fine grounds, 32 oz of 200℉ water, steep 4-5 minutes – the pumpkin is still strong and mingles with a sweet, earthy aroma of pecans. There is an active bloom which helps to bring out some of the milder, earthier notes in the aroma.

This coffee has a lighter body without being acidic. It tastes like a medium roast, with not much smoke or density, but rather a lighter, milder base for the flavors to shine through. And shine they do. The pumpkin and pecan are both strong, dominating flavors. Although I might have liked a slightly darker roast as the grounding base, this is a greatly flavored coffee that is delightful to drink.

Grab a bag before the fall season withers away and enjoy the flavors of fall in your cup.

Cheers,

Mrs. Brew
