Cupping Notes
When you first meet the Yirgacheffe, you’re greeted by a deeply complex, enticing, mega floral aroma. It packs a pretty punch! This Ethiopian coffee rolls over your tongue leaving a sweet spicy scent, with hints of cinnamon and orange zest. The gentle, rounded, easy acidity matches the floral scent to perfection, and complements the smooth warming mouthfeel. Hints of fruit, currants and cinnamon spice flow over the taste buds, leaving complex flavours of fruit, wonderful floral notes and a tingly, spicy finish. Orange zest, blackcurrant and pepper mingle with hints of rich dark chocolate, leaving a soft, gentle and truly satisfying aftertaste.
