Blind Assessment

Delicate, sweetly herbaceous, caramel-toned. Lemon verbena, black tea, caramel, oak, a hint of honeysuckle in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned structure with gentle, round acidity; crisp, velvety mouthfeel. The quiet finish centers around notes of lemon verbena and caramel.

Notes

Produced by smallholding members of the Kata Mudaga Cooperative Union and processed by the wet, or washed, method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying).

Bottom Line

A friendly, accessible washed Ethiopia with sweet herbal notes supporting the caramel-toned center.
