This Ethiopian medium roast from George Howell Coffee showcases the classic elegance of Yirgacheffe through producer Worka Chelbessa's heirloom varietals. The roaster's tasting notes—caramel, cherry blossom, stewed peach, and honeyed notes—point to a coffee balancing delicate florality with subtle stone fruit depth. Yirgacheffe coffees are traditionally prized for their tea-like brightness and nuanced aromatics, and this lot's flavor profile reflects that heritage while developing warmer, more rounded qualities typical of medium roasting.
