Ethiopian Sidamo SWP

From the land of "coffee of kings", This Sidamo is an elegant Swiss Water Process decaf from Ethiopia. It makes for a nice after-dinner espresso or drip coffee that goes nicely with heavy desserts such as chocolate mousse or Boston Cream Pie.

Roasting and Cupping Notes:

As with most decafs, a normal roast cycle is about 10% less time than caffeinated coffee counterparts. As typical of SWP decaffeinated coffees, over-roasting these beans will produce a carbony, almost charcoal-like appearance which is mostly, but not entirely cosmetic which is why we like to roast them lighter degree. Roasting them lighter seems to go a long ways to preserving the flavor and maintaining a medium to full body.
