  • Green Coffee: Zimbabwe

Roast: NA Review Date: March 1999
Origin: Zimbabwe Price: NA
 

Blind Assessment: This coffee provoked an unenviable list of drab adjectives: muddy (the favorite), grassy, neutral, ashy, rubber-like. Four panelists labeled the aftertaste "baggy," a term describing a flat, ropey sensation that usually indicates faulty conditioning or storage. Whatever its origin, the defect here overpowers the coffee.

Notes: This coffee performed poorly in the review, eliciting adjectives such as muddy, grassy, baggy, ashy, and rubber-like. Originally reviewed by a panel as a green coffee. NA

Who Should Drink It:

AROMA:4.0
ACIDITY:4.0
BODY:5.3
FLAVOR:4.2
AFTERTASTE:4.7

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.
