Blind Assessment
Deeply aromatic, rich-toned. Bergamot, nectarine, cocoa nib, hazelnut butter, wisteria in aroma and cup. Sweetly spice-toned with juicy, integrated acidity; silky, viscous mouthfeel. Balanced, long, very bright finish.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from trees of indigenous landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in the region, and processed by the traditional washed method (fruit skin and pulp removed before drying). Big Shoulders Coffee is a Chicago artisan roaster that emphasizes a fresh-roasted, no-nonsense approach to fine coffee. Visit www.bigshoulderscoffee.com or call 312-846-1439 for more information.
Bottom Line
A classic Ethiopia washed cup with notes of stone fruit and cocoa, supported by spice-toned citrus and rich florals.
