    Barista at Salt and Light in Groton made me a French press with this roast,

    It was a beautiful take on an Ethiopian coffee at a light-medium roast. Smooth and sweet, with peach, black tea, and floral notes. I usually steer clear of anything beyond a light roast for Ethiopian beans because bitterness can creep in, but this had none of that—just clean, natural sweetness and a silky, smooth mouthfeel. Absolutely excellent.

Roast Level: Light Medium
A Light Medium Roast coffee, sometimes referred to as a "City Roast" or "American Roast," lies between a light and medium roast. This roast level strikes a balance by preserving the coffee bean's unique characteristics while allowing for a moderate development of body and flavor. The beans have a medium brown color, exhibiting a slight sheen of oils, providing a more balanced and nuanced flavor profile. A Light Medium Roast typically highlights the coffee's inherent fruity, floral, or citrus notes, while also providing some of the deeper, richer flavors associated with medium roasts.
Bean Source Country: Ethiopia
Widely regarded as the birthplace of coffee, Ethiopia boasts diverse and complex flavors, from bright, floral, and citrusy in Yirgacheffe to wine-like and berry-toned in Sidama. The country's heirloom varieties, combined with unique processing methods, make Ethiopian coffee truly distinctive and sought-after by enthusiasts worldwide.
Bean Source Region: Guji
Guji is a renowned coffee-growing region in southern Ethiopia, known for producing exceptional coffees with distinctive flavor profiles. Coffee from Guji is characterized by its vibrant acidity, floral aroma, and complex fruity notes.
