Blind Assessment
Delicate and high-toned. Raspberry cider, dried hibiscus flower, liquorice root, roasted cacao nib in aroma and cup. Juicy, gently sweet acidity; light, satiny mouthfeel. The quietly sweet finish is redolent of cacao nib and dried hibiscus in the short, walnut in the long.
Notes
Yirgacheffe is a coffee region in southern Ethiopia that produces distinctive coffees from traditional varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. This is a “natural” or dry-processed version, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit, encouraging a flavor profile that is rounder and lower-toned than the more familiar wet-processed floral- and citrus-toned Yirgacheffe profile. Big Creek Coffee Roasters is a small, quality-oriented batch roaster located in Montana’s Bitterroot Valley. Visit www.bigcreekcoffeeroasters.com or call 406-375-7508 for more information.
Who Should Drink It
Those who appreciate an elegant natural-processed Ethiopia cup, with the cider and fruit complemented by crisp nut and cacao.
