Fresh Perspective - Light Ethiopia

Strawberry Candy, Blueberry Muffin, Creamed Honey

The coffee that tastes like blueberries, the one you'll never forget, and the one that caught everyone's attention. Fresh Perspective is a prime example of high-quality, natural-processed Ethiopian coffee. Fruity flavors come from complex heirloom varieties, dried under the Sidama sun in whole cherry, milled, rested, and roasted to bring out a syrupy body, bright acidity, and chocolatey sweetness. Super fresh on espresso, yummy on pour-over as well.
