Blind Assessment
Gently brisk, complex. Zesty lemon and almond in the aroma; a hint of cocoa becomes explicit in the cup, deepening and rounding the zesty citrus. Rich, balanced acidity; silky mouthfeel. Flavor saturates a long, clean finish.
Notes
This coffee is certified organically grown. Yirgacheffe is a coffee region in southern Ethiopia that produces distinctively floral- and fruit-toned coffees from traditional varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. Yirgacheffe coffees like this one processed by the wet or washed method (fruit skin and pulp is removed before drying) typically express great aromatic complexity and intensity with a particular emphasis on citrus and floral notes. Vertigo Coffee is a roaster with one retail café located in picturesque San Juan Batista, California. Visit
Who Should Drink It
