Blind Assessment
The famous Yirgacheffe flower tones are brighter and sturdier than usual here: less levitating, more grounded, fresh but rich, accessible, gently acidy. The cup darkens toward cedar and chocolate in the finish, the aftertaste is long and richly floral.
Notes
The famous Yirgacheffe flower tones are brighter and sturdier than usual here: less levitating, more grounded, fresh but rich, accessible, gently acidy. Bernie Digman is the proprietor of the colorfully named Milagro Coffee y Espresso in Las Cruces, New Mexico, near the Mexican border. Milagro means miracle. This coffee is not quite miraculous, but pretty close.
Who Should Drink It
People who prefer simpler bouquets of the same flower rather than complex bouquets of many.
