Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Nuanced, multi-layered, high-toned. Bergamot, strawberry guava, cocoa nib, almond butter, freesia in aroma and small cup. Plush, syrupy mouthfeel; long, satiating finish. In three parts milk, notes of freesia and cocoa nib are amplified, with undertones of strawberry guava, almond and bergamot.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers and processed by Faysel Abdosh, from trees of the 774110 and 74158 varieties of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying) and an extended 72-hour fermentation period. 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.

Bottom Line

Elegant, lithe, flavor-saturated, this classic washed Ethiopia is a powerhouse in the straight shot and dreamily complex in cappuccino format.
