Blind Assessment

Chocolaty, cleanly fruit-forward. Dark chocolate, blueberry, sandalwood, wisteria, lemongrass in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with brisk acidity; syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. Richly chocolaty finish with undertones of wisteria and sandalwood.

Notes

Produced by the Hassen family at their estate farm in the Guji Zone from distinctive landrace 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. Certified USDA organic. Founded in 1990, Roadmap CoffeeWorks, formerly Lexington Coffee Roasters, is an award-winning artisan roasting company based in Lexington, Virginia.

Bottom Line

A balanced, chocolaty, richly fruit-toned organic Ethiopia natural cup.
