Blind Assessment

Crisply sweet, citrusy-bright. Tangerine zest, apricot, almond, cocoa nib, freesia-like flowers in aroma and cup. Sweet-leaning structure with high-toned acidity; smooth, satiny mouthfeel. Notes of tangerine zest and almond characterize the crisp, long finish.

Notes

This coffee tied for the second-highest rating in a cupping of “Cause Coffees” for Coffee Review’s March 2021 report. Roasters of these coffees contribute a portion of proceeds to non-profit organizations doing work to improve the lives of others, locally or globally. Produced at Tesfaye Bekele's Suke Quto Farm and processed by the washed method.

Bottom Line

A balanced, juicy washed-process Ethiopia cup with citrus and stone fruit notes up top and spice-toned florals underneath.
