  • Ethiopia - Gummer Estate, Green

Roast: NA Review Date: October 1999
Origin: Limu growing region, western Ethiopia. Price: NA
 

Blind Assessment: I found myself at odds with most of the panel on this balanced, low-key coffee. What I read (and enjoyed) as pleasant chocolate tones others apparently took as earthy or faintly dirty notes. Or so it seems. But everyone enjoyed the deeply dimensioned, nut-toned aroma.

Notes: Low key but deeply dimensioned with pleasant chocolate and nut tones. Limu is generally considered the second most prestigious origin for Ethiopia wet-processed coffee after Yirgacheffe. From the 1998/99 crop.

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.
