Blind Assessment
Precise, high-toned, enigmatic and inviting. Lavender, bergamot, nectarine, wild honey, ripe blackberry in aroma and cup. Sweetly citrusy acidity; lushly silky mouthfeel. Elegant, satiating, flavor-laden finish.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers in the Bensa District of the Sidamo Zone, from selections of landrace varieties of Arabica native to Ethiopia, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Established in 2010, Red Rooster is an organic-certified micro-roaster focusing on socially conscious, high-quality coffee. Visit redroostercoffee.com or call 540-745-7338 for more information.
Bottom Line
A beautifully structured washed Ethiopia coffee that expresses the vibrancy and depth of Sidama terroir — this coffee rewards careful attention and offers a meditative experience if you’re so inclined.
