We did really well again this year and especially delighted with one of our coffees getting the top 3 Gold Stars.  Our Ethiopian Deri Kocha Guji was one of only six coffees in the country to get 3 stars! The judges comments below, say it all!

Lightly and evenly roasted beans with a fresh grassy aroma. This starts off with a pungent high acidity which then becomes sweet and fruity and mellows through to a rich caramel and nutty finish. We then added milk and the surprise continued - just as delicious with milk - less acidity but with the same fruity notes trailing again to the sweet caramel finish as described. A well-balanced coffee hitting all the right notes with a creamy length - really delicious.
Great little traditional beans. What a hit, rich, fruity and so well balanced and the flavours linger wonderfully. With milk this moved to a different dimension. Wow!

In addition we picked up 2 stars for our Ethiopian Dumerso along with single stars for seven of our other coffees: Will's Winter Blend, PNG Fire Dancer, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Kochere, Ethiopian Hama Natural, Nicaraguan Maragogype, Colombian Sierra Nevada and Monsoon Estates Cold Brew.
