Blind Assessment

Sweet, crisp, subtle. Honey, roasted cacao nib, fresh-cut cedar, loquat in aroma and cup. Gently bright, lively acidity; silky mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates but persists in a quietly resonant, slightly drying finish.

Notes

Certified organically grown. Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are produced from traditional Ethiopian varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. When processed by the wet or washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying) they typically express great aromatic complexity and intensity with a particular emphasis on floral notes. Like virtually all Ethiopia coffees, this one is produced by villagers on small, garden plots interplanted with food and other subsistence crops. Paradise Roasters specializes in micro-lot coffees and espressos from Hawaii and other premier coffee growing regions. The company prides itself on quality and freshness, craft-roasting coffees in small batches only after orders are placed. Visit www.paradiseroasters.com or call 763-433-0626 for more information.
