This one is weird. I'm going to meme and just say it tastes like lemongrass because it really just kind of tastes just like that. It's quite nice and zippy but it's kinda that. Lol

Context
Ethiopia remains a cornerstone of the specialty coffee world, celebrated for its immense genetic diversity and traditional processing methods that highlight the unique terroir of the Ethiopia region. While many coffees from this origin are known for their bright acidity and complex aromatics, experimental techniques like the one used for this Ethiopia Lemongrass Ferment by Royal Mile Coffee push the boundaries of traditional profiles.
In the broader landscape of specialty coffee, controlled fermentation processes are often employed to amplify specific aromatic compounds, sometimes resulting in distinct, singular notes that deviate from standard regional expectations. When exploring such unique offerings, it can be helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better categorize the specific nuances of the cup. This particular lot is defined by its prominent lemongrass character, offering a focused and vibrant experience that showcases the innovative potential of modern processing in one of coffee’s most storied origins.
