Blind Assessment

Deeply and richly floral-toned, complicated by crisp roasted cacao nib, orangy citrus and hint of gin-like spirits. Rich, deeply expressed acidity; syrupy but lively mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates in a rich, slightly drying finish.

Notes

A “natural” or dry-processed coffee, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit, encouraging a flavor profile that is lower-toned and more pungent than the more familiar wet-processed floral- and citrus-toned southern Ethiopia profile. Founded in 1990, Lexington Coffee is an award-winning artisan roasting company based in Virginia. Lexington’s focus on fresh, flavorful and sustainable coffee is reflected in its motto, “Fresh, Flavorful & Fair.” Visit www.lexingtoncoffee.com or call 800-322-6505 for more information.

Who Should Drink It

Fine and distinctive version of the newer dried-in-the-fruit Ethiopia style, with a slight shimmer of ferment enlivening a richly and cleanly floral- and cacao-toned cup.
