Blind Assessment: Richly aromatic, deeply and sweetly herb-toned. Cocoa nib, bergamot, lilac, maple syrup, myrrh in aroma and cup. Deeply sweet-toned in structure with vibrant, juicy acidity; syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. The long, resonant finish is flavor-saturated, floral- and fruit-toned.
Notes: Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are produced from traditional Ethiopian landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. This is a wet-processed or “washed” coffee, meaning the fruit skin and pulp were removed from the beans immediately after harvesting and before drying. Jaunt Coffee Roasters is a San Diego-based roaster and café with an extensive coffee and food menu. Visit www.jauntcoffee.com for more information.
The Bottom Line: A high-toned, vibrant washed-process Ethiopia cup animated by rich flowers and bittersweet citrus supported by complex herb notes.
