Roaster’s Notes
This late harvest purchase from Ethiopia comes from one of our favorites mills, Shantawene. This coffee has a strong fragrance but cups a bit less fruit-forward and more delicate. Think hibiscus tea-like notes marked by lime and pineapple acidities and sweet, herbal sugars. We also purchased its counterpart, a natural processed coffee, if you are looking for a fruit-dominant cup. These are real treasures for lovers of high quality East African coffees.
