Blind Assessment
Deeply and richly sweet, chocolate- and berry-toned. Blackberry, dark chocolate fudge, almond nougat, agave syrup, fresh-cut cedar in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned structure with juicy-bright acidity; very full, satiny mouthfeel. The crisp finish consolidates to notes of dark chocolate fudge and blackberry.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are largely produced from traditional Ethiopian landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. Processed by the natural anaerobic method in which the coffee cherries are fermented in the whole fruit with limited access to oxygen before they are dried. Established in 2010, Red Rooster is an organic-certified micro-roaster focusing on socially conscious, high-quality coffee. Visit redroostercoffee.com or call 540-745-7338 for more information.
Bottom Line
A chocolaty berry bomb of a coffee — think blackberry cobbler with a side of chocolate sauce.
