The Original that was the foundation for building

The original is what got me hooked on Inteligencia in the first place. The beautiful smooth flavor was such an elevation from chain coffee that it makes it very hard to buy coffee when I was on the road before I retired. The flavor is bold while not being over powering and so many subtle notes. I need another cup!
