Tastes like

Sun-Maid raisins

Typical intensity 8/10

Sticky, concentrated dried-fruit sweetness with a wine-like depth.

What fresh grape never shows in coffee, raisin does: fruit sugar concentrated to stickiness, with a low wine-like tang instead of juicy brightness. Expect it from naturals above all, where drying in the fruit concentrates the sugars, and from fuller roasts that deepen the effect further. It belongs to the warm end of fruitiness — closer to a pastry filling than a fruit bowl.
