Blind Assessment

Crisp, delicate, richly sweet. Yellow plum, cocoa powder, narcissus, sandalwood, brown sugar in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned structure with lively acidity; full, satiny mouthfeel. Cocoa-toned plum and a hint of narcissus enliven the quiet finish.

Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are largely produced from distinctive indigenous Ethiopian varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. Processed by the wet or washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). De Clieu Coffee is a Taiwan-based roaster whose mission it is to explore extraordinary coffees.

Bottom Line

A washed-process Ethiopia cup with leading notes of stone fruit and spicy florals and an appealingly bright structure.
