 pomegranate

pomegranate
===========

Pomegranate is a unique and distinctive coffee flavor that is often found in coffees from Ethiopia. It presents with a bright, tart, and fruity profile, reminiscent of the sweet-tart taste of fresh pomegranate arils. This flavor is commonly associated with coffees processed using the natural or "dry" method, where the coffee cherries are dried with the fruit still intact.
