Caramelized sugars and honey sweetness fade to hints of slab apricot, piquant orange acidity, subtle notes of whole spices and dried flowers. See roasting tips in the cup notes. City to Full City+. Good for espresso.

Full Cupping Notes:
The fragrance at City and City+ have a subtle smell of natural dried fruits, and brown sugar, with faint floral suggestions in the wet aroma. The flavor profiles are grounded in complex sweetness that have indications of honey, unrefined sugars, and the bittering side of caramelized sugars. The cup fades to fruited hints of slab apricots and dried peach, with subtle notes of whole spices and dried flowers. Light roasts have a piquant acidic impression that brings out a splash of orange, some zested peel in the finish. Even at Full City, Kenisa manages to produce a fruited under-layer amidst the bittersweet roast tone, as well as more of a syrupy texture. Dark roasts are also delicious and with a somewhat milder acidic impression, presents a good option for Ethiopian espresso.
