Blind Assessment
Cocoa-toned, gently fruity. Cocoa nib, red plum, caramel, tangerine, lemon verbena in aroma and cup. Bright, sweetly tart acidity; crisp, lightly satiny mouthfeel. Cocoa-driven finish with undertones of tangerine and lemon verbena.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, entirely of local landrace varieties of Arabica, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). 1980 Cafe is a Tainan City, Taiwan-based specialty coffee roaster. Visit www.1980cafetw.com for more information.
Bottom Line
Citrus and sweet herbs complicate this washed Ethiopia cup, harmonizing well with stone fruit and cocoa nib.
