Blind Assessment
Fruit-toned, tropical. Lychee, guava, cocoa nib, violet, sandalwood in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with crisp, high-toned acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. The finish centers around lychee and sandalwood notes.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are produced largely from local, indigenous varieties of Arabica. Produced by smallholding members of the Nano Challa Cooperative and processed by the wet, or washed, method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying).

Bottom Line
A particularly fruit-centered washed-process Ethiopia cup, tropical leaning in its aromatics with a mysterious and pretty note of sandalwood running throughout.
