Strawberry, Chocolate, Marshmallow

An unexpectedly different flavor profile from the aroma. I liked it although I was hoping for more of the sweetness that I smelled to come through. On the other hand the familiar tart fruits of Ethiopian beans did not disappoint. I liked it very much.

Every 50 or so Moustache deliveries, I'll run into one I don't care for. Shantawene is that for me. While it's certainly intriguing and offers a moderate level of complexity, the flavors just aren't pleasant IMO. Maybe a bit of strawberry sweetness, but I'm not picking up on marshmallow or chocolate. There's a moderate level of acid present that when combined with a certain earthy, fungal nature to this bean, does not sit well with me. Your mileage may vary.

Not bitter. Very nice smooth taste.

A very pleasant roast! Knew it was going to be special from the slightly fruity aroma of the beans and it did not disappoint!

I get the strawberry taste and a bit of sweetness at the end. Very much enjoy the coffee. Another great coffee from the Moustache team. The AI engine most love the coffee too because I have 3 bags of it! All for Christmas week.

I've been having high-end coffees at home for years, and I rank this among the very best of them. Moustache's tasting notes are right on (and that's saying something; I often struggle to detect the listed notes for any given coffee), and they're all flavors that I like best in a coffee (berry, chocolate, the sticky-sweetness of marshmallow or something like it). I dare say I pick up malt in this too - another of my top flavors.

Did a coarse and a medium ground pour overs to compare. Either was not bitter or too sour which was nice since I always end up messing it up. Hard to get wrong so that’s a plus! Definitely tart and herby “fruit” profile. Not sure about strawberry or chocolate or marshmallows. No earth tones at all which is what I was looking for.

I was expecting this to be a really good pour over, yet when I brewed it it didn't have much fruitiness or very distinctive flavor like many naturals do. I later tried it on the french press and the flavors came out much more and I could get some of the strawberry type fruitiness and the creamy mellow accent. It also had good body. Then I tried it on the espresso and I was very surprised by how good it was. It turned out with a very strawberry fruitiness and nice creaminess with a good tasty finish. I would have probably been making it espresso much more if I would have realized it earlier on :)

I have very good luck with naturally processed coffees from Sidama. This coffee has the delicious fruitiness you crave. I'm enjoying a hot cup at this very moment.

This was the smoothest most wonderful coffee I’ve had in a long time. Was tired of plain coffe, decided to try this and couldn’t be happier. Would definitely recommend! And will definitely be ordering again

Truly enjoyed this one. Floral and smooth

No bitterness!!! Flavorful and very smoot! Would definitely recommend!

This was our introduction to Moustache Coffees, and it's wonderful! It's very light and not overpowering, with hints of sweetness. The best part is that it's not bitter at all! Looking forward to having this one again soon.

This may be my best cup yet from moustache. Bold and a ton of of flavor. Will order again!

Really enjoyed this coffee! Brewed via chemex and was definitely able to taste the strawberry and chocolate notes, although I never tasted marshmallow. However, for whatever reason, I had a particularly difficult time brewing this coffee. Unlike other coffees I've received from Moustache, my pours would often stall with this bean. Tried changing the grind size to counter but that ended up muting the flavor of the coffee. Overall though, really did enjoy!

I enjoyed the strawberry notes a lot! Definitely looking forward to more fruity notes from future beans
