So, in an earlier post, I gave the opinion that Allegro's Ethiopian Adado was perhaps the best coffee I have had to date. Intellegentsia's Doyo is at this same vaunted level. The two coffees are a great contrast in outstanding flavor profiles; the Adado being more citric with berries while the Doyo has a rich deep cherry aroma. Doyo is offered in 12oz packages with a one-way valve.


The light-roasted beans are of a fairly typical size for African sourced coffee beans.

I brewed these aromatic babies up in the french press at 190 degrees with 4 minutes of steeping. A nice thick crema crema of heavenly goodness formed at the top, which thinned a bit when the grounds were stirred for a few seconds. African beans seem to form thinner foamy tops than beans from other countries.

Doyo Ethiopian is awesome. There are simply no other words I can come up with to describe the rich cherry flavors.
