Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Brightly sweet-tart, chocolaty. Pomegranate, dark chocolate, goji berry, almond butter, cedar in aroma and small cup. Plush, creamy mouthfeel; crisp, tartly chocolaty finish. In cappuccino format, dark berry notes take over from tart fruit while almond butter is amplified.

Notes

Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of local heirloom varieties of Arabica, and processed by the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). GK Coffee is a nano-roastery in Yilan, Taiwan, that offers both retail and wholesale coffee. For more information, visit www.gkcoffee.com.tw or email [email protected].

Bottom Line

A complex, enigmatic natural-processed Ethiopia tested here as espresso: brightly sweet-tart in the straight shot and deep-toned and nutty in three parts milk.
