Blind Assessment: High-toned, floral. Star jasmine, apricot, lemon verbena, maple syrup, marjoram in aroma and cup. Crisply sweet with vibrant, delicate acidity; silky-smooth mouthfeel. Flavor-saturated short finish with notes of star jasmine and lemon verbena, supported by a hint of marjoram, extending into the long.

Notes: Guji is nestled next to Ethiopia's better-known Yirgacheffe and Sidamo growing regions. Processed by the wet or washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying).  94 Fresh Coffee is a specialty coffee roaster based in Kaohsiung City that specializes in espresso, including training and machine sales, with wholesale pricing available for all coffees.

The Bottom Line : An elegant, juicy washed Ethiopia with interesting sweet-herb undertones; graceful acidity, bright but not bracing.
