Blind Assessment

Richly aromatic, deeply sweet-tart. Dark chocolate, kumquat, amber, star jasmine, salted caramel in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart, malic acidity; very full, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. Very long, focused finish with dark chocolate, complex citrus, and undertones of amber.

Notes

Guji is a coffee-growing region nestled next to Ethiopia's better-known Yirgacheffe and Sidama regions. Guji coffees are largely produced from distinctive landrace varieties of Arabica long grown there. Processed by the natural method (beans are dried in the whole fruit).  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

A very inviting natural-processed Ethiopia — exquisitely clean, complex, balanced and flavor-saturated, lyrically bright and paradoxically deep.
