You should not judge a book by its cover, nor a cafe by its vibe, and you probably should not judge a coffee by its barista. All of those things are correlated to each other, though. I do not understand why so many of the baristas in San Francisco were so sad. Maybe it was the bad weather or maybe they were all just waiting for that February paycheck to fill the rent-shaped hole in their wallets.
I guess you should also not judge a coffee by its origin. I have this perception that Mexican coffee will taste lemony. I think I am wrong, and that it is not lemony by default. I also had never had Chiapas-an coffee, with this one being grown in La Concordia, Chiapas.
I thought it was a warm, smooth coffee, with a good amount of body, some acidity, and really nice, well developed flavor. I thought it was pleasantly fruity. I tried to squint as hard as I could to get the promised "sierra fig," which was probably there. Anyways, it was too long ago for me to properly review this coffee. I liked it, I would have it again, and the "medium roast" label is tremendously made up.
