Blind Assessment
Crisply sweet-tart. Pineapple, baking chocolate, hazelnut, lily, fresh-cut fir in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with pert acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. The finish centers around notes of pineapple and lily with hints of hazelnut.
Notes
This coffee tied for the fourth-highest rating in a cupping of coffees from roasters in the northwestern U.S. for Coffee Review’s April 2020 tasting report. Dapper & Wise was founded in 2013 by co-owners Evan Aldrete and Tyler Geel, who also own Insomnia Coffee. In addition to its roastery, the company operates two coffee shops.

Bottom Line
An accessible and engagingly classic washed-process Ethiopia: crisp, balanced and very sweet.
