High quality Sidamo, the original grown-in-the-wild coffee beans.
Complex flavor, very citrusy with lots of acidity. The light roast is complex with lots of bitter flavors. The dark roast is a very strong coffee, almost like a punch in the jaw!
Works best for espresso or in a macchinetta.

Yarden Frankl –
Let’s first address the 800 pound gorilla on the coffee bar. Yes, this is coffee harvested by Black and Brown people mostly for the enjoyment of White people. That’s a fact whether you embrace it or cringe at it. There. So now that that’s said, lets push aside feelings of guilt or resentment to focus on the coffee. To be honest, Powerworks was out of my normal go-to, Columbian Dark Roast. So admittedly, it was not my first choice to go Ethiopian. Not that my preference was based on either racism or reverse racism — I just like Columbian Dark. However, the Ethiopian Roast was not objectionable. There was an almost layered consistency of blended notes of burnt toast, cookie crust, and fresh minted leather combining for a serious cup of coffee. I would recommend drinking black with a fly-by of real cream so as not to mask the flavor with cloying sweetness. I like a bold cup of coffee and it was a good wake up call to…er..wake up.
I do still long for my Medellin-based Columbian cartel roast. But in the meantime, keeping some Ethiopian on hand is not a bad choice if you want to start the day on the right foot.
