Using a unique processing technique from the specialty coffee experts at Daye Bensa, this washed Shantawene is traditionally wet fermented for 36 to 72 hours and then dried on African beds for about 9 to 12 days. Smooth and round bodied, Shantawene is a delightful light roast that offers juicy lime acidity and a delicate floral aroma. We also tasted dried strawberries, candied tangerine, caramel, and nectarine.

Every coffee we share has been tasted and recommended by our expert Tasting Panel who have years of experience in specialty coffee. We cast a wide net, trying hundreds of coffees, keeping an open mind to new regions, processes, and roasters, and going through many rounds of cupping. If there was an easier way of choosing each coffee, we wouldn't want to do it.

Little Wolf Coffee began roasting in 2016 in the small town of Ipswich, MA, naming their business after their Siberian Husky. They operate on a philosophy of high-quality sourcing, careful roasting, and the belief that a cup of coffee is only as good as the company you share it with.
We suggest a pour-over brewed with a 1:17 ratio for about 3:30 minutes. For espresso we recommend 18 grams in and 45 grams out for about 31 seconds.
