Black & White Ethiopia Yukro Lot 2

 Roasted on 10/26/20 I brewed this in a Kalita wave using notneutral filters with a Baratza Encore grinder. My recipe is 28g coffee, 400g hot water not necessarily aiming for any particular time, but somewhere between four and five and half minutes. I try to do a 50g bloom in the first 45 seconds then three or four more pours. 16. Lots of Sweet lemon syrup throughout, starfruit-like acidity, some honey and floral hints at the end. I was surprised at how syrupy the mouth feel was.

I wish it was a tad bit lighter, but it was good nevertheless.

Predominantly dark rich tasting pomegranate notes, some honey and the a little mango at the end. I did enjoy this.
