Blind Assessment
Very fruit-centric, spicily floral. Watermelon candy, star jasmine, agave syrup, pistachio butter, pink peppercorn in aroma and cup. Brightly sweet-tart with energetic acidity; very full, viscous mouthfeel. Resonant, fruit-focused finish with pistachio undertones.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are largely produced from distinctive indigenous Ethiopian landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in their respective regions. This is a dry-processed or “natural” version, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or “washed” coffees. Drink Coffee Do Stuff operates a roastery in Truckee, California and a coffee shop in nearby Incline Village, Nevada. Visit www.drinkcoffeedostuff.com for more information.
Bottom Line
A confident, unapologetic fruit bomb of a coffee with spicy floral complication.
