John J. ★★★★★

The natural process really shines here—those Wolisho beans brew up with a syrupy sweetness that lingers long after the cup is empty. At 2300 masl, the altitude shows in how crisp and clean the finish stays even when it cools down. Definitely ordering another bag before I run out.

Eli ★★★★★

The floral aroma from those Kurume and Dega varieties hit me right after opening the bag, and the natural process gives it such a juicy, wine-like sweetness. Bought it for my morning pour-overs and it’s already my favorite from the 2024 harvest — smooth, no bitterness, even as it cools.

Joshua ★★★★★

The natural process really shines through here—that Yirgacheffe floral note is unmistakable, and the 2300 masl altitude gives it a brightness I haven't found in most bags this year. I've been brewing it in a pour-over and the cup stays clean even as it cools.
