Peaberry?

12-23-2008, 10:34 PM

In my limited experience I have noted 2 things with peaberry's....and this is a VERY broad generalization.

1) I have had several that I liked quite well, yet I don't quite get the big deal about peaberry in and of itself. It's still just a bean IMO.

2) I have never personally been very happy with a peaberry roasted short of FC, with my observations being that FC+ seems to help coax those hidden flavors out of there.

Some peaberry beans reveal wonderful flavor; few beans from Caribou (and fewer cups of coffee served at Caribou) reveal anything more that bad taste to me. I know there are Caribou lovers out there and no offense meant to them but the local Caribou here in Raleigh serves the sorriest excuse of crap in a cup anyone could imagine.

I suggest trying some peaberry fro ma source other than Caribou. Try Unclebeanz if they have some on hand. Whole 'nuther world.
