Blind Assessment
Delicate but exotic, juicy, brandy-toned. Blueberry, pineapple, lilac, brandy, roasted cacao nib, agave in aroma and cup. Tart, gently drying acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. Flavor consolidates but maintains sweetness in a long, resonantly drying finish.
Notes
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. This is a “natural” or dry-processed Yirgacheffe, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit, encouraging a flavor profile that is lower-toned and more pungent than the more familiar wet-processed Yirgacheffe floral- and citrus-toned profile. Roasted at PT’s Coffee, where the motto is “without the love, it’s just coffee.” Visit www.ptscoffee.com or call 888-678-5282 for more information.
Who Should Drink It
Lovers of cognacs and fine American rye and corn whiskies may particularly enjoy this big, sweetly dry, complex coffee.
