Description / Cupping Notes

This coffee comes from the tribal area of Eastern Highlands. 3,600 farmers contribute coffee to the Cooperative HOAC. This coffee has good body, a good bit of acidity for an island coffee, spiciness and floralness, with strong hints of cocoa chocolate and carmel on the finish. It is excellent for blending and for espresso blends, but please drink it straight too – it shines as a straight! It takes a dark roast very well and puffs up nice and large after a friendly roast. A truly wonderful coffee that should be a regular player in your house “coffee collection.”
