The Sidamo region of Ethiopia is a high mountainous area within the Yirgacheffe region, so the taste profiles tend to be similar, especially in the washed coffees. But this is a natural (dry-processed) Sidamo which tend to have red berry flavors and sometimes lemon, milk chocolate, or tea-like characteristics.
This one is grown by a co-op of 700 farmers who had their coffee processed at the Addis Ababa Mill. It is a sweet, true Sidamo with the characteristic fruity flavors. No earthiness or astringency, but juicy candy-like flavors of cherry, grape, watermelon. Some milk chocolate.
