Hi all
Im just thinking out aloud here and would love to hear your feedback.
Some background:
Im able to obtain a very limited supply of a variety of very high quality raw beans. If that sounds good so far, read on...
The idea:
To offer a 3 month subscription, limited at this stage to just 10 subscribers. Subscribers receive 1kg of a different roasted coffee each month, for 3 consecutive months, packed in a gusset bag. Also included would be some notes regarding the origins of the coffee, the actual roast profile, and a few valve bags (1x500gm + 2x250gm) so that the coffee can be split up and/or stored.
For the first subscription:
What I have in mind to offer, but not set in stone, for the first subscription are...
1. El Salvador El Borbollon from the Alvarez family farm
2. Costa Rica Finca la Lia certified organic, and,
3. Colombia Del Obispo (as used by Gwilym Davies in 2009)
Cost:
$165.00 for the 3 month subscription ($55.00 per kg) including postage and the other bits and pieces mentioned above.
My motivation:
a) Yes, to make a profit
b) I get to experience a wider variety of quality coffees without outlaying my entire personal fortune (a small hill of beans) and share that opportunity with some other people.
So, what do you think?
