Blind Assessment: Complex, multi-layered, deeply sweet. Dark chocolate, date, butterscotch, ginger blossom, marjoram in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with high-toned acidity; syrupy mouthfeel. The resonant finish centers around notes of date and dark chocolate.
Notes: Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are largely produced from distinctive landrace Ethiopian varieties of Arabica long grown there. This is a natural-processed version (dried in the whole fruit). JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.

The Bottom Line: A deep-toned Ethiopia natural: cleanly fruity, richly chocolaty, juicy-sweet.
