The Ethiopia Sidamo coffee of this area is always grown in the so-called coffee gardens, which are plots in which the coffee grows in the shade of other plants, often tobacco, banana, spices, tea and others, a system that allows coffee to capture extraordinary aromatic sensations.
For this evaluation, the coffee was tasted with a 25 ml extraction in espresso at 94°C, in 26 seconds. The degassing of the coffee took 48 hours.
The crema has a hazelnut color with darker, marked shades. The aroma is very evidently of citrus, cardamom, tobacco and nutmeg; if sweetened, the coffee present notes of candied citrus. To the taste, the coffee has a light body and a marked acidity (one of the most evident in the world of coffee, also thanks to it's washed processing method). The bitterness is very light, and the aftertaste is truly elegant.
