Blind Assessment
Richly fruit-forward, chocolate-toned. Dried blueberry, chocolate fudge, gardenia, cashew, orange zest in aroma and cup. Deeply sweet with fruity acidity; plush, creamy mouthfeel. Chocolaty finish with blueberry and orange complication.
Notes
Southern Ethiopia coffees like this one are largely produced from distinctive indigenous Ethiopian landrace varieties of Arabica long grown in their respective regions. This is a dry-processed or “natural” version (coffee is dried inside the entire fruit). Bird Rock Coffee Roasters is a retailer and wholesaler focused on organic and socially responsible coffees; it was awarded the “2012 Micro-Roaster of the Year” title by Roast Magazine.

Bottom Line
Concentrated, berry-driven natural Ethiopia with deep, enveloping chocolate notes.
