Blind Assessment

Balanced, crisply fruit-toned. Black cherry, pink grapefruit zest, almond, agave syrup, lilac in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned structure with gentle acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. Delicately fruit-toned finish with undertones of almond.

Notes

Produced by smallholding-farmer members of Banko Gotiti Cooperative in the district of Gedeb, Ethiopia, from selections of indigenous landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. Processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). Caoban Coffee is a specialty roaster and cafe based in Taipei. Visit www.facebook.com/CAOBANCOFFEE for more information.

Bottom Line

A delicate, balanced natural-processed Ethiopia cup, fruit-forward and nutty with floral undertones.
