Subtle & Delicate

Delicate and sweet, with a mango-like acidity and a tea-like body that floats lovely floral notes all the way through the last sip.

    Roaster’s Notes
    This may be the most floral coffee we’ve tasted all year with distinct notes of lavender. Over 700 small hold farmers contribute to the Borboya washing station in Yirgacheffe where this coffee was fermented, washed and dried on raised beds. A winning combination of heirloom varieties and that magical Yirgacheffe terroir this coffee delivers on all fronts; sweetness, complexity and richness.
