Kisiizi Washed Espresso
As an espresso, this fully washed Ugandan lot from Kisiizi is plush and composed, with a comforting sweetness at its core. Brown sugar leads the cup, melting into rich malt tones and dried fruit notes reminiscent of sultana raisin. The East African acidity is present but restrained, adding lift and clarity rather than sharpness, resulting in a rounded, syrupy mouthfeel. Balanced and dependable, it pulls a sweet, mellow shot that’s equally satisfying on its own or paired with milk.
