Blind Assessment

Vibrantly fruit-toned, intensely sweet-tart. Mango, cocoa nib, agave syrup, lemon thyme, magnolia in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with perky acidity; plush, syrupy mouthfeel. Crisp fruit-forward finish with undertones of agave syrup and lemon thyme.

Notes

Produced at Gatta Farm from trees of local landrace varieties of Arabica and processed by the honey method, in which the skins are removed from the fruit but at least some of the sticky fruit flesh is allowed to dry on the beans. Reverse Orangutan is a specialty coffee roaster based in Glendora, California, “a scrappy operation focused on delivering some serious gourmet shit.” Visit www.thereverseorangutan.com for more information.

Bottom Line

A richly fruit-toned natural-processed Ethiopia cup with a tropical throughline and particularly juicy acidity.
