Blind Assessment
Floral-toned, brightly sweet-tart. Jasmine, red plum, cocoa nib, almond butter lemon balm in aroma and cup. Juicy-bright acidity; crisp, silky mouthfeel. Finish consolidates to notes of red plum and almond.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of local landrace varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). Imported by Red Fox Coffee Merchants; certified USDA Organic. Founded in 2011 by Keith Hamrick and Jen Lovrak, Northbound Coffee Roasters is a family-owned and -operated roastery in Mount Shasta, California. Visit northboundcoffee.com for more information.
Bottom Line
This washed Ethiopia profile hits all the classic notes: bright stone fruit, crisp cocoa nib, sweet florals.
