 orange peel

orange peel
===========

Orange peel is a citrusy, bright, and zesty flavor often found in coffee from East African origins, particularly Kenya and Ethiopia. It presents as a top note, adding a refreshing, sweet-tart quality to the cup. This flavor is commonly associated with light to medium roast profiles, where the natural fruit-forward notes of the coffee are highlighted.
