Once again it is time for new crop arrivals to start to trickle in. The first two RA certified lots to come in so far this year have been exceptional. The first is a completely new origin for our Rainforest Alliance Certified product line, a Fair Trade / Rainforest Alliance Certified, Organic, Indonesian Sumatra, Gayo Mountain, MD Grade 1. This coffee is a deep beautiful green, excellent flavor and by far, one of the best Sumatrans I have cupped in a long while. I am currently sending out samples of this and will have it set up as a product before long, but in the meantime just call us if you would like to give it a try.
The second is our new Crop Peru RA Organic MD from Pronatur Farms. Always a excellent offering and this year proves to be no exception. The green is beautifully prepared and perfect moisture with a fine cup. A breath of fresh air for the Peru enthusiast
Also we just cupped the pre shipment sample of the first RA, SHB Guatemalan from Finca Nueva Granada. Generally I like the second or third lot of the crop year but this one cups very well, so we may bring this one into Charleston and pull from it for now until the later lots come in. We will see.
More info to come as new crop continues to filter in, and maybe a few really cool specialty surprises to boot!
