Ethiopia DP Jimma-Nigusie Lemma

SM had this rated as a 94 so I grabbed 5 pounds of the green bean and roasted it FC+. I let it rest for a day before sampling. During the roast smells of cocoa and stewed fruit filled the air...very unusual roasting experience. I knew if it tasted as good as it smelled I would be in for a treat. First, impression was dried apricot...and it was bursting with this flavor...didn't have to go searching for it. It also tasted of nutty oils on a cocoa base. I noticed subtle background mixed fruit themes as I chewed the coffee.

I tend to be much tougher on coffee ratings then SM but 94 is very close. I would probably rate this coffee a 92...impressive lot and well worth a look.
