Blind Assessment
Rich-toned, flavor-saturated. Black currant, magnolia, dark chocolate, candied walnut, hint of smoked paprika in aroma and cup. Sweet-savory structure with elegantly juicy acidity; syrupy-smooth mouthfeel. Richly chocolaty finish with undertones of black currant and candied walnut.
Notes
Produced by Mulugeta Tsige, from local heirloom varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying) at the Mulugeta Tsige Washing Station. Buon Caffe is a specialty coffee roaster and cafe in Taipei, Taiwan. Visit www.buoncaffe.com.tw for more information.
Bottom Line
Deeply aromatic, complex and rich, this G1-washed Yirgacheffe delivers in all categories with its balanced brightness, viscosity and interesting smoky spice note (unrelated to roast).
