We’re currently drinking the Sumatra Pantan Musara from Sisters Coffee Company and it’s really good! There’s a depth of base flavor here that goes beyond the advertised dark chocolate tasting notes. It’s incredibly full in the mouth without being over roasted. I want to drink this all the time.

Our previous shipment was Ethiopia Maduro Natural from Case Coffee. I didn’t review this because it didn’t make much of an impact; the berry notes weren’t really my thing.

Our current Bottomless shipment is a really great Ethiopian. Ethiopia is my favorite coffee country and this one really worked for me. My usual Ethiopian is a much darker roast from Lighthouse Roasters, and the lighter roast was kind of an eye-opener. The raspberry undertones come out way stronger than they would in a dark roast.

Kuma Coffee is local and when/if we get tired of the Bottomless routine I can easily see going there for our coffee needs.

We signed up with Bottomless recently (referral link) because we wanted to get more forced variety in our coffee and because I’m a sucker for tech. I want to make sure I remember what we like so I’m going to try and get in the habit of dropping a quick review.

The first delivery was Penstock Coffee Roaster’s Sisola Mill from Indonesia. The base flavor is a really complex flavor, fairly sweet for coffee, and there’s a sour overtone that’s almost too much for my tastes. I also normally like a darker base. I enjoyed this nonetheless. I might not seek it out on purpose but I won’t be sad if it comes up in our rotation again.
