How it sits among coffee from Ethiopia

How often roasters use each flavour family to describe coffee from Ethiopia: 539 of 857 carry notes. The dashed outline is the whole catalogue. These are the roasters’ own words, grouped — not our tasting, and not a measurement.

Atkinsons Coffee Roasters describe this coffee as fruity, caramel and sweet. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Ethiopia; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.

Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Ethiopia, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

What the roaster says about where it came from

Country

Ethiopia

Region

Sidama, Huila

Variety

Castillo

Not stated

farm or estate, producer, process, altitude, harvest, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Recyclable packaging

Carbon neutral

“All our coffee and tea packaging is recyclable and carbon neutral.” their page (opens in a new tab)

These are claims the roaster makes about its business, not about this coffee, and we have not checked them against any register.

Where each fact came from

Variety

“The yeast inoculated Castillo from Edison Argote brings brown sugar-like sweetness, refreshing peach and tropical fruit notes and an amazing sweet cakey character like Battenberg!” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Flavour families

“This brings a little more fruit, with notes of melon, blueberry and papaya, and keeps it similar to our previous iterations of Prototype!” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Country of origin

“The Story Hamasho is a coffee-producing community and washing station located in the Bombe district of Ethiopia’s Sidama region, an area widely recognised for its long-standing coffee-growing traditions.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Region

Seasonal

“Prototype is a seasonal showcase of fruit forward coffees in espresso form that gives bags of sweetness, balanced acidity and solubility that makes a syrupy and forgiving espresso.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Tasting notes

“This brings a little more fruit, with notes of melon, blueberry and papaya, and keeps it similar to our previous iterations of Prototype!” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
