Full Cupping Notes
Gogogu is one of our top washed Ethiopian coffees, producing an incredibly aromatic cup of floral flavors, and pristine acidity when roasted light. Cup sweetness is fruited and bright, and the aroma is filled with perfumed floral highlights that linger in the finish. The dry fragrance of a City roast shows muted raw sugar notes, with hints of apricot, spice, and fresh flowers accenting the sweetness. Smelling the wet aroma, floral sweetness is at the forefront, with a note of jasmine pearl tea swirling in the steam, and tropical fruits behind it. This coffee has juicy fruit flavors in the cup as well, with expressive character that finds its way into the aroma and acidic impression. The cup sweetness is syrupy and fruited, connecting aromatic notes of citrus and passion fruits, along with crisp Chinese pear. As you sip this coffee, floral and herbal notes are sensed in the mouth aroma, exuding fragrant aspects of star jasmine flowers, and fresh Thai basil. There's a potpourri of tea notes too, like herbal and green teas with freeze-dried mango mixed in. The acidity has a citric quality without the grabby bite, mouth-refreshing and a bit softer, like honey-sweetened lemon tea. The coffee cools off to traces of tart hibiscus, pink gum, and red apple. Full City roasts carried some darker fruit notes, that I think some folks will really enjoy. It's a little more berry-toned to me, with bittering dark chocolate, and rue-like herbals. It's a different cup at darker levels, not better or worse, but more deep-toned and bittersweet. It was actually quite interesting to taste the two roast levels side by side.

Origin & Farm Notes
The Uraga Woreda is home to some of the highest altitude coffees we buy, many of the farms topping out at 2300 meters above sea level. Altitude plays a role in coffee density, the higher altitude zones slowing rates of maturation, which in turn produces a much denser coffee with higher potential for sweetness and acidity. The village of Wate Gogogu is one of those dizzying altitudinal zones, and home to the Gogogo coffee washing station. There are around 450 small-holder farmers around Wate Gogogu, most with less than a hectare of coffee planted. The Gogogu washing station is owned and operated by a man named Negusse Debela, whose coffees we've purchased the last few years (others include Halo Beriti, Buku Sayisa, and Refisa). Once again, Gogogu is one of our top washed Ethiopian coffees, producing an incredibly aromatic cup of floral flavors, and pristine acidity when roasted light.
