"The coffee is phenomenal, with the body and flavor of a French-press cup, but with a much cleaner taste."

I haven't been very good at posting the last few special coffee beans. But We just finished off a Colombia Antioquia Supremo that was so excellent I will reorder it. The week after that we had Kenya AA Nyeri, after that an Ethiopia Limu, and after that a Costa Rica Naranjo Caracol. Coming up next:

Kenya Muranga - Kianderi Peaberry

Peaberry coffees are the mutant X-Men of coffee beans. Normally a coffee cherry contains two beans. A coffee cherry with only one bean is called a peaberry. They have a smaller rounder size and their flavor is more robust and acidic.

This week's special coffee:

Kenya Muranga - Kianderi Peaberry

is aromatically floral with a mild scent of vanilla and sweet cereal. It is also has unabashedly bright lemony high notes.

I'll roast and have the next off-the-menu siphon coffee by Monday.

The last couple roasts sold out sooner than I anticipated which is a good thing, but I'm thinking to make Mondays the new coffee days.

SOLD OUT - (This was really interesting... could be the smoothest coffee I had. )
This week's secret siphon coffee is a certified organic Sumatra from the Aceh District.

It's very low in acidity, has a nice chocolate dry fragrance with mild fruited notes, and clove in the finish. With low acidity and opaque body, this gives the cup an unusual overall character.
