I like a lot of different kinds of coffees, but I really do enjoy Ethiopian coffee so I was pretty excited to see what would come of this bag.<\/p>\n<p>One detail I neglected to mention before is that Case&#8217;s bags are 10.5 ounces. Most coffee companies offer bags in either 12 ounce or 16 ounce sizes, but we are seeing more specialty roasters offering bags in smaller sizes. I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s a coincidence that many of these smaller bags are being carried by companies that offer free shipping.<\/p>\n<p>Whole bean: Fruity scent that is reminiscent of mango. Ground, it smelled like pie crust.<\/p>\n<p>V60: Sweet, moutherwatering aroma. Light to medium bodied. Mango. Floral aroma and flavor on the finish that reminded me of lilies.<\/p>\n<p>AeroPress: Too strong to drink straight. This tasted like I had taken a mixed bouquet of flowers and spun it in a Vitamix. Once I added water, the flavor was much more subtle and delicate; nothing stood out in particular but it tasted like a sunny spring day. Delicate and pleasant. As it cooled, the coffee revealed a scent like grapefruit.<\/p>\n<p>Chemex: Light brew with a little lemon flavor. Bright, lovely, and demure coffee. This drink curtesyed in my mouth!<\/p>\n<p>French press: The heavier body to this cup made for a vanilla-esque flavor and character in addition to the other flavors I noted in the previous cups. Beautiful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong>: All of these cups were very nice (just make sure you add water to the AeroPress brew!) and would be a lovely choice for anyone that enjoys washed Ethiopian coffees or prefers subtle, delicate coffee. Not a good choice for anyone that likes dark, assertive coffee or adds cream to their cup &#8211; I think that milk + flowers and grapefruit and mango would be <em>weird&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>From the roaster: Mango, peach, fresh<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.casecoffeeroasters.com\/shop\/ethiopia-mogeyes\">Case Coffee Roasters Ethiopia Mogeyes<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This review covers my other bag that I received from Case Coffee Roasters in my recent shipment.
