They roast on a Giesen! Also, not sure if you knew this (I only found out after I had ordered i think), but the nensebo mewa is a lot managed by Tamiru Tadesse. It's his lot in Oromia. So I think that's partially why they were so similar. I also think that they have a distinct style for their ethiopians and they do kind of turn out similar tasting, but that would be another reason why they were so similar :)
At one point we were aware of that largely due to the fact that we found it pretty interesting given our love for Giesen roasters. The producer situation makes a lot of sense, but it certainly felt like the style John Small was going for.
