Blind Assessment
Brightly sweet, high-toned. Pink grapefruit, cocoa nib, red plum, maple syrup, fresh-cut oak in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with juicy acidity; very silky, vibrant mouthfeel. The finish centers around notes of cocoa nib and pink grapefruit.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, entirely of the Ethiopian 74110 variety of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). HWC Roasters is a specialty coffee roaster based in Taichung, Taiwan. For more information, visit www.hwcroasters.com.
Bottom Line
A lively, cocoa- and stone fruit-driven washed Ethiopia with a throughline of sweet citrus notes supported by rich aromatic wood.
