90	Zingerman's Coffee Ann Arbor, Michigan Indian Natural Processed Roast: Medium-Light Review Date: October 2009 Origin: Karnataka State, southern India. Price: NA

Blind Assessment: Aroma of fermented fruit that reads pleasantly as sweet berry, with soft wine and nut suggestions. In the cup bright toned acidity, medium-to-full body and smooth mouthfeel. Tart cherry softens and rounds toward the sweet berry noted in the aroma, balanced by pungent suggestions of aromatic wood. Fruit-toned sweetness carries into the long finish.

Notes: Grown on India's Sethuraman Estate, this coffee is dry- or "natural-" processed, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit is removed, as is the case with the more typical wet-processed or "washed" coffees. Zingerman's Coffee is a specialty roasting company associated with Zingerman's Deli in Ann Arbor, praised as "one of the top 25 food markets in the world" by Food & Wine magazine. It offers a relatively small but sensitively sourced and roasted menu of specialty coffees. Visit www.zingermanscoffee.com or call 734-929-6060 for more information.

Who Should Drink It: An unusual balance of flavor notes in a traditionally dried-in-the-fruit coffee.

Coffee, more so than wine, is a continually changing product. Recent reviews, whether written by Coffee Review or readers, are most likely to reflect current versions of a given coffee.
