ethiopia coffee
by rigby roastery · austin, usa
you'll taste stone fruit before tropical fruit. this is ethiopian coffee beans, a natural ethiopia from rigby roastery.
expect stone fruit and tropical fruit up front, supported by jasmine and floral notes, with black tea and a tea-like quality through the mid-palate. milk chocolate, dark chocolate, cocoa, and a light earthiness fill out the finish.
this coffee is sourced from the guji region of ethiopia and processed using the natural method, where whole coffee cherries are dried before the fruit is removed, which concentrates sweetness and fruit character in the final cup.
roasted light, this coffee suits brew methods that preserve clarity and highlight delicate flavours, so filter or pour over approaches will let the floral, fruit, and tea-like notes come through without being muted.
and then you remember what espresso should actually taste like. rigby roastery sits on east austin's sixth street, pulling shots that make you wonder why you've been settling for mediocre coffee elsewhere. the regulars here aren't just being loyal for loyalty's sake. they know good espresso when they taste it. you walk in and the place feels serious about coffee without being precious about it. no theatrical pouring rituals or lengthy explanations of flavor notes. just consistently excellent espresso that doesn't need to announce itself. the kind of place where people order their second shot before finishing their first. when you find espresso this good, everything else starts tasting flat by comparison. order it straight, no milk to hide behind.
