Blind Assessment
Balanced, high-toned, multi-layered. Dried plum, genmaicha tea, lemon balm, candied violet, cocoa nib in aroma and cup. Sparkling acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. Notes of dried plum and genmaicha tea are foregrounded in the pleasing finish.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of local landrace varieties, and processed at the Biru Bekele Washing Station by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). 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
A savory throughline complicates this otherwise stone fruit- and cocoa-driven cup: a classic washed Ethiopia.
