The Short Version

Ethiopia Shantawene – Organic At A Glance

Origin

Shantawene, Sidama, Ethiopia

Process

Washed

The Shantawene mill sits in the foothills of the Bombe Mountains and serves around 1,500 local growers, pulling from slower-ripening trees at higher altitude. A malt dry aroma opens into an orange and berry flavor, very citrusy, turning sweet and clean as the cup cools.

Provenance

Where It Comes From

Lost Dutchman Coffee Roasters product range

The Shantawene coffee mill is found within the small village of the Shantawene and serves around 1500 local growers. It is located in the foothills of the Bombe Mountains and thus higher than many of the mills in the region, pulling from slower-ripening coffee trees (due to high altitude and cooler weather). The soil in the area is very nutrient-dense, and groves of inset (faux banana) intermingle with the coffee trees. This washing station is the result of several years of preparation for Sidama coffee man Assefa Dukamo and his family.

Cupping Notes: Malt dry aroma becoming more intense as a wet aroma. Flavor is orange-berry like and very citrusy, becoming very sweet and clean tasting as the cup cools. Pleasant lingering aftertaste.

The People Behind It

How We Roast It

Espresso machine behind the counter

Small Batch

Roasted to order in small batches. Never left sitting in a warehouse.

Freshness Guarantee

Orders are roasted as fast as we can process them. Every bag that goes out has a roast date label on it.

Master Craft

We roast on Ambex and Probat L12 drum roasters. Their flexible controls are what keep one batch tasting like the last.

Before You Order

Questions

Orders are typically shipped the same day they are roasted. So, it comes down to how fast the Post Office is. They advertise “from 1-5 business days depending on which state you’re located in.” You’ll receive tracking information via email so you can track the package’s progress.

It’s best not to grind the beans until you’re ready to use them, so grind just before you brew. Match the grind to your brewer: coarse for French press, Medium for most drip brewers. For pour overs: Medium to coarse, whichever gives you a four minute brew time (in general). Fine to very fine for espresso depending on your equipment.

Keep it in the bag it came in and put a rubber band around it. Glass containers are not great as the idea is to minimize the air (oxygen) around the beans. Unless completely full, glass containers have too much head room. If storing for up to several months, freezing is a good idea as long as the beans are completely sealed (like in the bags they come in). Studies have shown time and again that freezing, if done right, is a good option.

Currently, subscriptions are limited to a mix of single origin varietals and blends. A single coffee type for the length of the subscription is not an option. You can see how it works on the Coffee Club page.
