Blind Assessment
Richly sweet-tart, fruit-centered. Pomegranate, dark chocolate, toffee, cedar, narcissus-like flowers in aroma and cup. Tart-leaning structure with vibrant, juicy acidity; satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Finish consolidates to notes of pomegranate and cedar with dark chocolate undertones.
Notes
Produced from distinctive traditional varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. This is a dry-processed or “natural” version, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or “washed” coffees. Brain Helmet is a Wisconsin-based specialty roaster that provides retails and wholesale coffees, as well as education and training. For more information, visit www.brainhelmetcoffee.com.
Bottom Line
A vivacious, bright, fruit-toned natural-processed Ethiopia cup.
