The beans available at the above date/times will be:
Ethiopia Ghimbi $12.50/kg (inc Faircrack)
I was so excited when this sample arrived, its been 3 or 4 years since we have managed to score a Ghimbi coffee and the sample was just like I remembered. The dry process Ethiopian Ghimbi comes from the far west of Ethiopia and produces a great bodied, low acidity espresso full of fruit sweetness and berries. Think Harrar with added body!
Costa Rica San Isidro $10/kg (inc Faircrack)
is a well processed hard bean coffee. It produces a mid bodied and well balanced espresso with some sweetness and some of the brightness you expect from a Costa Rican. Great for espresso at CS9, suitable for syphon and other gentle brewing methods at CS8
PNG Wahgi AA arrived last week and is available now.
I might/should/hope to have a couple of surprises in there too but these will be very limited quantity. Sorry in advance to those that see something disappear before they can click.
We also just landed a grand pile of super fresh teas in time for home made Christmas hampers and goodie bags.
China Siaou Chu Pearl Tea
Ceylon English Breakfast Tea

Feel free to discuss pickup point pickups and plan the social get togethers (eg: who is bringing cake) in this thread.
