Blind Assessment

Crisp, richly sweet. Cocoa nib, apricot, almond, cedar, maple syrup in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart in structure with brisk acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. The finish consolidates to notes of cocoa toned almond and stone fruit.

Notes

Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are largely produced from distinctive indigenous Ethiopian 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. Jebena Coffees is a Dubai-based custom-built roasting facility with a temperature- and humidity-controlled storage area and a professional cupping lab. Jebena offers coffees for both retail and wholesale purchase, as well as coffee training at every level. Visit www.jebenacoffees.com for more information.

Bottom Line

A high-toned natural-processed Ethiopia that is fruit-forward without a hint of ferment.
