Bye Bye Ethiopian Micro Lots
Get what stock you can now and wait to see what happens for the next harvests.

(headline) BLIND HOG FINALLY FINDS ACORN
I can see where some folks would find it both too weird AND too expensive. Seems to meld well with Cerrado.

Re: Bye Bye Ethiopian Micro Lots
Too expensive cracks me up, but it is relative these days.
For those with an acute snout, you buy Quick Check, WaWa, Dunkin D, Starbux at over $1 per 12 ounce cup. Our sale price got you in at $0.48 per 12 ounce cup. Now it is at $0.74 per 12 ounce cup. At one point, it was $0.98 per 12 ounce cup. Commercially prepared coffee vs. Aricha? No contest. But people likes what they likes. We can't help you on the too weird part. You call it speechless. We call it exceptional. And honestly, you have not tried Beloya 25. Stellar. |

Re: Bye Bye Ethiopian Micro Lots
That's terrible news. I've been drinking Aricha 27 all week -- this is iconoclastic coffee. Fantastic stuff. I can't believe they'd want to adulterate this totally unique bean by blending it with anything else. Just the scent of the fresh grounds makes my morning -- it makes me feel like I'm in one of those stupid coffee commercials on tv. (Especially when my wife sees me with my nose in the container and asks, "Does it smell like coffee?")
So now I'm torn. Should I let the Beloya 25 sit in its vacuum pack for a special occasion, or let er rip??
