Ethiopia Tibebu Aleto Sidamo Natural ESPRESSO

this is a natural-processed espresso from tibebu aleto in the sidamo region of ethiopia, roasted by passport specialty coffee. natural processing means the coffee cherries dry whole, which draws fruit sugars into the bean and produces the pronounced blueberry character this coffee is known for, alongside milk chocolate and dark chocolate. it is roasted for espresso, so pull it as a straight shot or short milk drink where the fruit and chocolate contrast can come through clearly. grind fine, dial in for a 25-30 second shot, and expect a sweet, fruit-forward cup with a cocoa finish.
