Ethiopia Horse Harrar From Java Dawg Coffee

Java Dawg was very gracious with supplying me with some Ethiopia Horse Harrar to try out.I love Ethiopian coffees so when Chris “Big Dawg” gave me this to try out I was very excited. Although, I am not happy to say that it wasn’t like most Ethiopian coffees I’ve had.
The first thing I noticed was that the beans are very oily which indicates a darker roast.
From the aroma, I noticed an earthiness to it, and a chocolate note underneath that. The bright fruitiness that I was hoping for was not there.
In each sip, I noticed a very pronounced smokiness with a chocolaty/cocoa like pungent note. There were no bright fruity notes.
This coffee is in no way bad whatsoever, but I think that if it was roasted a little lighter it would be awesome.
I’d give this coffee a 3 out of 5 cups.
This coffee will run you $8.50 for a 12oz bag.
