Blind Assessment

Delicate, richly aromatic, sweetly tart. Lavender, strawberry, roasted cacao nib, lemon zest, sandalwood in aroma and cup. Balanced, sweetly tart in structure with bright, vibrant acidity; silky-smooth mouthfeel. The crisp, cocoa-toned finish is redolent of lavender and strawberry in the short, lemon zest and sandalwood in the long, all supported by cocoa tones throughout.

Notes

Produced by Girma Eshetu on his single-farmer estate from trees of varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. This is a wet-processed or “washed” coffee, meaning the fruit skin and pulp were removed from the beans immediately after harvesting and before drying. Propeller is a Toronto-based micro-roaster with a dedication to careful selection and exceptional craft roasting of high-end coffees.

Bottom Line

A classic, on-point washed Ethiopia cup: floral-toned, with bright berry and zesty citrus notes, all enveloped in delicate cocoa.
