Hatch Supernova: A Classic Cup for Everyday Enjoyment

A Review of Hatch Supernova Coffee: Perfect for Those Who Prefer a Traditional Taste

My experience with Hatch Supernova is that its a great ‘normal’ coffee. If you’re not keen on diving too far into more acidic or floral/fruit forward coffees, this is a great place to start.

While the tasting notes are berries, praline and baker’s chocolate, I might have been able to taste a hint of berries and chocolate. I don’t eat or taste pralines very often so it would have been difficult for me to pick up on that tasting note regardless.

The website does say that its a classic profile and what classic generally means is that its a consistent cup of coffee you’d find at any cafe or coffee shop that serves a great cup.

I brewed this bag both using pour-over and espresso. For pour-over its a great cup of ‘regular’ coffee. It tastes great but its similar to many other cups of coffee I’ve had. Perhaps a bit more acidic than a Starbucks Pike Place.

I pulled an espresso shot with it in my Bambino Plus and it was very acidic (to my taste). That could be a user (me) error in under-extraction or it could be how its supposed to be. It’s also on the lighter end of medium roast so that might also play a part.

I bought this bag from Another Land Coffee but they have many retailers and shops that sell Hatch (along with their facility in Markham).
