Blind Assessment
Floral, fruity, chocolaty. Blueberry, star jasmine, dark chocolate, hazelnut brittle, pomelo in aroma and cup. Deeply sweet structure with sparkling acidity; plush, satiny mouthfeel. Chocolaty and fruit-toned in the very long and satisfying finish.
Notes
Produced by Basha Bekele, from selections of indigenous landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in the region, and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). Founded in 1990, Roadmap CoffeeWorks, formerly Lexington Coffee Roasters, is an award-winning artisan roasting company based in Lexington, Virginia. Roadmap CoffeeWorks focuses on producing fresh, distinctive and sustainable coffees. Visit www.roadmapcoffeeworks.com or call 800-322-6505 for more information.
Bottom Line
At the center of this pretty natural-processed Ethiopia is a melange of bright stone fruit and rich spice-toned florals grounded by deep chocolate, a winning aromatic and flavor profile.
