Blind Assessment
Profoundly sweet, richly composed. Dried mulberry, myrrh, roasted cacao nib, grapefruit zest, wisteria in aroma and cup. Crisp, bright acidity; plush, velvety mouthfeel. The floral-toned finish is resonant with notes of wisteria, cocoa and myrrh.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia produces distinctive coffees from traditional varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. This is a “natural” or dry-processed 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. Kakalove Café is a nano-roaster located in the small city of Chia-Yi in Taiwan that strives to procure and roast the finest quality coffee.

Bottom Line
An intricately layered, elegantly rich natural-processed Ethiopia cup.
