Tastes like

Earl Grey tea

Typical intensity 3.5/10

Fragrant, slightly bitter citrus-floral note — the same aromatic that flavours Earl Grey tea.

Anyone who drinks Earl Grey already knows bergamot: the fragrant, faintly bitter orange that hovers between citrus and flower. Washed Yirgacheffe and other Ethiopian coffees produce it alongside their jasmine — the same gentle handling preserves both aromatics — and its presence usually signals an elegant, tea-like cup overall. It's a connoisseur's note: subtle, perfumed, and easy to miss if you drink in a hurry.
