Blind Assessment
Brightly sweet, quite vibrant. Pink grapefruit, cocoa nib, apricot, bay leaf, maple syrup in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with juicy acidity; very silky, lively mouthfeel. The finish centers around notes of cocoa nib and sweet grapefruit.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are produced largely from local, indigenous varieties of Arabica. Produced by smallholding farmers under the direction of Kata Muduga and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). 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
A high-toned, cocoa- and stone fruit-driven washed Ethiopia with a throughline of sweet citrus notes and undercurrents of woodsy herbs.
