Flavor

Ethiopia Limmu Kossa is an exquisitely bright and delicate coffee, full of dynamic floral notes, layers of sweetness and balanced citric acidity. Lighter roast styles are vibrant and complex with notes of bergamot, wildflower honey and Meyer lemon with a round body and clean finish. The Limmu Kossa holds up exceptionally well in darker roast styles with an abundance of sweetness, a thick and syrupy body and notes of honeycomb, milk chocolate and sugarplum steal the show. This is a unique and versatile coffee that can be enjoyed in a myriad of ways. We recommend it as a juicy, floral batch brew or as a silky and charismatic shot of espresso.
