you'll taste red apple before winey. this is ethiopia worka sakaro, an anaerobic ethiopia from roadmap coffeeworks - roastery, tasting room and drive thru.
it tastes like red apple and has a winey character, backed by both milk chocolate and dark chocolate. the anaerobic process pushes the fruit and ferment-forward qualities to the front of the cup.
it is grown in ethiopia and processed using an anaerobic method, meaning the coffee cherries ferment in sealed, low-oxygen tanks before being dried. this technique intensifies fruit and winey flavors compared to washed or natural processing.
pour over or french press work well with anaerobic ethiopians like this one, allowing the red apple and chocolate notes to come through clearly. go slightly coarser on your grind and keep water temperature around 93,c to avoid over-extraction, which can make ferment-forward coffees taste harsh.
