you'll taste caramel before baking spice. this is decaf - ethiopia heirloom - washed kvw mc, a washed ethiopia from i have a bean.
it tastes of caramel and baking spice, with a general spice warmth running through the cup. the washed process keeps the flavour clean and straightforward rather than fruity or complex.
it is grown in ethiopia using heirloom varieties and processed using the washed method, which strips the coffee cherry before drying. it is then decaffeinated using the mc (methylene chloride) process.
filter brew methods such as pour over or drip suit washed ethiopian coffees well, as they highlight the clean, defined flavour the process produces. french press also works if you prefer a fuller body.
