    I just finished off a roast of the 35 this morning and I think I still had 750g left too.

    All thats missing now is the surprise announcement of Yemen on Monday to make it a really great Beanbay :

    who would have thought!
    Spoilt eh! We are working on some other interesting direct trade beans this year too, its always a long process to land them but well worth the effort to get amazing coffees.

    Sounds a little like the MTE Bin 35
    Yes, same amazing processing but these are from a specific microlot, I can show you the actual row of trees these came from (which is pretty funky!).

    had to love Bin 35
    I still have a small stash of the Bin35, I should do a side-by-side to see how they compare.

    We will also have another MTC microlot next month, semi washed process though which in the samples gave bigger body and traded-off a little of the sweetness and fruit.

    BeanBay GREEN BEAN sale

    Monday 3rd May

    2000 QLD, ACT, NSW, VIC, TAS (8pm)
    1930 SA, NT
    1800 WA
    http://beanbay.coffeesnobs.com.au

    The beans available at the above date/times will be:


    Cuba Turquino $13/kg*
    This bean comes from an origin that due to political unrest and embargos means that it doesnt appear very often. This one roasted to a CS9 produced an espresso that was initially very sweet with a good body and then a long dry nearly peppery aftertaste similar to the tannins in strong black tea. A very unique coffee that we rarely see in this high a grade.


    Kenya Kagunyu AA $12.50/kg*
    This is a washed, well processed bold bean with the unmistakable bright, citrus, sharp Kenyan acidity that makes it stand-up as a single origin espresso. This beans will take a lot of heat during roasting ending very bright at CS8-9 or take it to CS10 for some deeper cocoa notes.


    Venezuela San Cristobal $11.50/kg*
    The San Cristobal is a large screen, washed and well processed beans from an unusual coffee origin. Easy to roast and good acidity make this a great single origin for milk based drinks. Our test roasts were at CS9-10 and were slightly sweet and well balanced.


    Australia Mountain Top Estate Microlot - D10-205 $27/kg*
    Double Pass process, Extra Fancy grade. A truly amazing single origin Australian coffee. Even as a green bean this coffee produces an amazing sweet, fruity smell that excites the senses and builds the anticipation of the roasted bean. In the cup it doesnt disappoint with a medium body full of sultanas and fruit cake with a sweet lingering aftertaste. Stunning!

    We also have stock of:

    Peru Ceja de Selva Estate
    Indian Monsoon Malabar AA
    Ethiopian Gambella Sundried
    Brazil Pulped Natural
    PNG Wahgi AA
    China Yunnan Hougu
    Zambia Munali Estate
    India Madikeri Robusta
    ...and more
