FROM THE ROASTER

ON A FEBRUARY TRIP TO ETHIOPIA TO VISIT OUR KEY SUPPLY CHAIN PARTNERS, TURE WAJI HANDED US THESE SAMPLES FROM HIS EXPORT BUSINESS, WHICH FOCUSES ALMOST ENTIRELY ON THE HIGHEST ALTITUDE PRODUCTION IN URAGA AND HARO WOLABU. IT WASN'T UNTIL WE GOT BACK TO LONDON AND TRIED THEM THAT WE REALISED THERE WAS SOME SERIOUS HEAT INVOLVED - POSSIBLY ONE OF OUR FAVOURITE TRADITIONAL ETHIOPIAN NATURALS TO DATE. FIRST YEAR OF PRODUCTION FOR THIS COMMUNITY AND STATION.

WE'RE TASTING

WILDLY FLORAL AROMATICS - SWEET PEA FLOWER, HONEYSUCKLE AND JASMINE. IN THE CUP IT'S BIG BLUEBERRY, WILD STRAWBERRY AND LAVENDER ON THE HOT CUP, WITH BLOOD ORANGE ACIDITY AND SWEETNESS ALONGSIDE FRESH CITRUS ZEST AND PARMA VIOLET. AS IT COOLS IT BECOMES MORE DEFINED - MORE STRAWBERRY AND RASPBERRY, THE CITRUS AND FLORALS EVOLVING TO BERGAMOT ALONGSIDE ROSE, WITH A HINT OF CORIANDER SEED. SUPER COMPLEX.
