This flavor presents as a deep, slightly acidic berry character with subtle stone fruit undertones, often accompanied by winey or jammy qualities. Black cherry notes are especially prominent in coffees with higher fermentation activity and are frequently paired with chocolate or cocoa undertones in the cup.
