Cedar is the dry wood note that distinguishes Sumatran wet-hull coffee from generic earthiness. It reads as clean and dry rather than musty. Camano Island Coffee Roasters Sumatra carries cedar clearly alongside earthy and dark chocolate notes. See the Earthy & Smoky family guide.
Strawberry and raspberry brightness arrive first, sharp and sustained on the Geisha's floral frame, with honey sweetness carrying the cup through to a faint ginger close.
Blueberry and dried banana hit clean on a thin, high-acid frame; pour over is where this cup does its best work.
Cedar follows the chocolate, the earth doesn't lift, and the body carrying both is the reason to buy it.
