Tasting experience
As an Espresso, this shot is outstandingly similar to a Port wine. The aromas of orange zest and sweet grapes perfumes off its crema as a subtle warming smell and hint of woodsiness seals the overall flavour perception and experience like a warm body. Sweet grapes, Citrus, Woodsy and Memorable. Great as a winey finish. As it cools, the flavour mellows out to chocolate and a pronounced taste of Figs.

Nice and fruity single origin that goes well as an espresso itself. There's a nice acidity that reminds me of red wine, and very little bitterness. Overall, it's a well-rounded espresso with great sweetness, and an aroma and taste that reminds me of dried fruits. The body is smooth. I enjoy drinking this as an espresso or an espresso macchiato, as anything with more milk will overpower the coffee, and drinking it as an americano is slightly underwhelming. I love this single origin.
Sherlyn W.
Love the flavour profile of this beans! Very smooth and easy to drink both as a white and as a black!

Kelly C.
Mild tart aftertaste, easy to drink but not memorable.
Lasse S.
A little dark and generic for my taste and has a tendency to get a muddy taste. It benefits from lower brew temperature. Seems like it would be better as a slightly lighter roast.
Delwyn W.
Very pleased with the beans, always returning for more.
KC T.
Not my first time with this blend and won’t be my last time. More than a decent Choo’s so to say it’s my go to may undervalue the quality of these beans. Don’t sleep!
Klint T.
Great coffee

Marcus V.
A very interesting roast. The beans had a fruity honey scent, with a medium to dark roast.
Vincent W.
Wonderful coffee. Nice crema and blends well with my oatmilk.
Justin L.
Woodsy was not in the "Flavour Notes" of website! I hate this flavor and would not have picked up this bag had I known that.
To be fair it is if you read the "Tasting Experience" and on the bag, but I was going off the other section. I got the bag and was surprised it said "Woodsy" on the bag.
Frustrating.
Seow Hong T.
Tried out of curiosity. Not bad at all.
KC T.
Came back to the Ugandan after trying the other festive blends during the holiday season. Never disappoints, always a pleasurable morning 30g. Keep up the good work Cowpresso and keep those special blends coming. I always like new surprises. The same gets boring after a while.
Alex C.
It was a little challenging to dial in this bag of beans initially, but after that the flavours are fairly consistent, even if a little muted in my opinion. As an espresso this tastes a little on the brighter side but it works well with milk.
Yee Ling W.

Very interesting bag of beans. As an espresso it’s bright and has a nice body, but in a cortado it can be richly chocolatey.
Jarrett O.
Packaging was faultless and airtight. Coffee was wonderful, great as a drip with woody earthy aromas, smooth mouthfeel and a sweet aftertaste. Reliable cowpresso as always!
