Ethiopian Gedeo Worka - | |

Rated 92 by Coffeee Review, Direct Trade Good Food Award Winner REGION: Gedeo VARIETAL: Varies FARM: Worka ALTITUDE: 1950 - 2300 M FARMER: Coops ROAST: Medium NOTES: 92 pts by Coffeee Review, Direct Trade Distinct and diverse; an abundance of fine flavors from the birthplace of coffee. This is the bowl of berries we come to expect from a clean Ethiopian Natural, composed of blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries. However, this Ethiopian is not like no other with its additional notes of bing cherries and the unexpected tropical fruit tones, pineapple. Held together with notes of cherry vanilla and slight cocoa powder. This medium light roast provides a fragrance and aroma encumbered of floral, berries, and tropical fruits. A bright acidity among a creamy and juicy body. Ethiopians are proud to claim coffee as having been first discovered growing wild in their majestic highlands. With the coffee ceremony foundation to their national culture, Ethiopians cherish coffee as both a drink which unites the nation, and a treasure to share with sharp coffee drinkers from every corner of the world. Fed by fresh mountain water, and matured through 'thirteen months' of sunshine, the rich resonance and variety of the sundried coffees contrast with the delightful floral and aromatic flavors of the natural coffees to provide an unrivaled range of tastes, highly esteemed by many and fully loving up to their reputation as outstanding specialty coffee. This coffee was sourced by Mike, earlier this year during his Ethiopian Cupping Caravan Trip. This caravan brought 24 international coffee buyers face to face with the people who grow some of the best coffee in the world. The cupping caravan in February 2010 was an exploratory trip designed to benefit coffee professionals on both ends of the chain, from farmers to roasters. Coffee Reviewed scored Ethiopian Gedeo Worka 92 points, there blind assessment was stated as: "big, syrupy mouthfeel and a long, deeply resonant finish particularly distinguish this coffee, but the rich acidity is impressive too, as are the sweetly pungent aromatics: fir, dark chocolate, cherry, almond." |
