إثيوبيا مولوجيتا مونتاشا ناتشورال

The backstory sold me, but the cup delivered—rich, fruity notes with a syrupy sweetness that lingers long after each sip. I’ve brewed it in my pour-over every morning this week and it’s easily the most vibrant natural I’ve tried from the region.

The tasting notes are surprisingly clean and sweet for a natural process. It's a smooth, easy drinker that really showcases the producer’s dedication.

I was a little skeptical about the story behind this one, but the beans arrived looking cleaner than most naturals I've tried, and the whole bag smells like ripe fruit before you even grind it. Knowing the producer worked his way from truck driver to this level really made me appreciate every cup.
