Blind Assessment
High-toned, richly floral. Star jasmine, cocoa nib, bergamot, almond nougat, oak in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with bright, juicy acidity; full, satiny mouthfeel. Inviting finish that leads with notes of jasmine and bergamot in the short, rounding to almond and cocoa nib in the long.
Notes
Ethiopia coffees like this one are produced largely from local, indigenous varieties of Arabica. Produced by smallholding members of the Nano Challa Cooperative and processed by the wet, or washed, method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.

Bottom Line
A pleasing washed-process Ethiopia cup with especially engaging acidity and pretty spice-toned floral notes throughout.
