ETHIOPIAN YIRGACHEFFE FTO WASHED GR. 2 – BANKO DHADHATO

This Ethiopian cup is a bit more delicate and complex than your average Ethiopian. Lighter roasts will have some decent brightness, lemony with some soft fruit tones, peach and grapefruit like accents. A pretty floral cup with some awesome jasmine like aromatics.  The lighter tones pull some balance with the classic tea like chocolaty undertone, traditional darker notes from the Yirgacheffe region. Medium roasts really mellow out the acidity and reduce the fruit tone, create a bit more body and a much more recognizable chocolaty factor. A very smooth, balanced and rich cup with exotic highlights. Darker roast burn out all the fruity and acidic notes, gets a little smoky roasty with strong bakers chocolate tones.
