Blind Assessment
Crisp, citrusy-sweet. Baking chocolate, lime zest, cedar, date, agave syrup in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with brisk acidity; silky mouthfeel. The finish consolidates to notes of baking chocolate and lime zest.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are largely produced from distinctive indigenous Ethiopian varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. Processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). Avatar Coffee Roasters is a specialty roaster based in Montclair, California.
