Blind Assessment
Brilliantly transparent, enticingly layered. Bergamot, wild honey, star jasmine, cacao husk, ripe apricot and lemon verbena in aroma and cup. Luminous, lively acidity; satiny body. The finish is persistent, weaving citrus and floral brightness through sweet cocoa undertones.
Notes
This exceptional coffee was selected as the No. 2 coffee on Coffee Review’s list of the Top 50 Coffees of 2025. Produced by Mehbuba Seid Abdella, from local landrace varieties of Arabica, and processed by the 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 luminous washed Guji that embodies refinement and energy with a lucid structure, paradoxically delicate and complex aromatics, and perfectly integrated sweetness — a bargain at this price.
