The tasting notes for Keramo comprise a long list of bright & sweet accolades. This lot boasts a sparkling array of deep berry sweetness to lively strawberry acidity. There are hyper floral overtones that permeate the palate long after the sip. The structure has a firm, crystalline quality. Notes go further as the roast opens up into week four+ with juniper berry, pointed minerality & a sustained floral finish.

This coffee is approachable and elegant. Recommended for all brew styles. As espresso you can pull long for a more delicate floral demitasse or shorter for a high impact black tea-berry character. Keramo farmers have Cup of Excellence titles and won over the coffee industry the last few years for their consistency and clarity in the cup. The people of Keramo Village & Daye Bensa Station have set in place some of the highest standards in Ethiopia for producing clean Landrace representations. These seeds are dense and packed with cherry impartation due to the staggering elevation. The coffee is wet fermented for 36-72 hours & dried on raised African beds for up to two weeks to hit a stable moisture content.

All of the logistics have aligned for us; from farm, to processing, sourcing & now roasting. This coffee just keeps on giving, if you can, wait to brew the last brew(s) until a month+ after the roast date, it's astounding! 

Order by Sunday for Monday's roast. 

Best cupped or brewed two weeks+ after roast date.
