Blind Assessment

Aromatic, sweet-savory, big-bodied. Grapefruit, dark chocolate, cedar, sarsaparilla, ginger blossom in aroma and cup. Sweetly brisk with plush, viscous mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates in a simple, resonant finish around notes of grapefruit and cedar.

Notes

Yirgacheffe is a coffee region in southern Ethiopia that produces distinctive coffees largely from selections of indigenous landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. This example is processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed before drying). RamsHead Coffee Roasters is a family-owned company founded by Bozeman, Montana natives Caleb and Laura Walker that specializes in direct trade microlot coffees.

Bottom Line

A hearty washed Ethiopia characterized by sweet-tart grapefruit and richly aromatic cedar, softened by dark chocolate tones.
