Blind Assessment
Fruit-toned, richly sweet. Strawberry, dark chocolate, nutmeg, grapefruit zest, fresh-cut fir in aroma and cup. Sweet-toned structure with round, gentle acidity; satiny-smooth mouthfeel. The gently drying finish centers around fresh-cut fir with strawberry and nutmeg suggestions.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia produces distinctive coffees from traditional, largely indigenous varieties of Arabica long grown in the region. This is a “natural” or dry-processed version, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or “washed” coffees. Vienna Coffee Company is a craft roastery and coffee shop with two locations in Tennessee. Visit www.viennacoffeecompany.com for more information.
Bottom Line
A fruit-forward, natural-processed Ethiopia cup with a throughline of sweet aromatic wood notes.
