Blind Assessment
Remarkably clean-finishing dried-in-the-fruit profile. Opulently sweet but crisp: roses, nut, cocoa, molasses, black tea. Balanced, well-integrated acidity; lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Extraordinarily rich, sweet-toned, densely flavor-saturated finish.
Notes
This coffee is grown in the Guji area of southern Ethiopia's Sidama (previously Sidamo) province. This is a "natural" processed coffee, meaning that the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after removal of the fruit. Founded in 1990, Lexington Coffee is an award-winning artisan roasting company based in Virginia. Lexington’s focus on fresh, flavorful and sustainable coffee is reflected in its motto, “Uncommon and Uncompromised.” Visit www.lexingtoncoffee.com or call 800-322-6505 for more information.
Who Should Drink It
The aromatic fireworks of a fine dried-in-the-fruit Ethiopia with none of the fermenty downside. Splendid coffee.
