The mango-iness was certainly more lassi than mango, and it had a silky body that I am starting to think is part of the nature of Ethiopian coffee. I did like it. However, it had this funkiness that natural process coffees have, which in my opinion, covers up the flavor of the coffee that we are all theoretically so interested in. That makes me think that I prefer washed coffee, even if natural processes are more "interesting."
