Top 30 Coffees of 2017
Coffee Review will begin announcing our annual Top 30 Coffees list on Saturday, November 25. We
will reveal five coffees per day, announcing coffees No. 5 to No. 1 on Thursday, November 30.
For the past five years, Coffee Review has released its Top 30 list, where our editors rank the most
exciting coffees from the thousands we cupped over the course of the past year. We select and rank
these 30 exciting coffees and espressos based on quality (represented by overall rating), value
(reflected by most affordable price per pound), and other factors that include distinctiveness of style,
uniqueness of origin or tree variety, certification, and general rarity.
Congratulations! Our roaster Hui Ling Wang (Kelly) earns the top-23 coffee rank among worldwide
coffee.

Subtly intricate, deeply sweet. Star jasmine, roasted cacao nib, dried mango, myrrh, fresh spearmint in aroma and cup. Bright, juicy acidity; plush, velvety mouthfeel. The resonant, flavor-saturated finish leads with notes of star jasmine and dried mango, balanced by suggestions of crisp cocoa tones throughout.
