Shameful self bump...

I might give them a shot then. I only buy roasted by the kilo due to high demand. Thanks Mrshades.

 

[RagingMammoth]

Really useful guide. Thanks for doing some rummaging... I'll update you guys on how the coffee is. Plan on ordering from them in the next few days.

 

[RagingMammoth]

Just ordered the all day blend. See how it goes. Was 12.50 shipped.

 

[RagingMammoth]

A kilo. Takes my family two weeks to get through it.

 

[RagingMammoth]

The price of MM on Ebay looks tempting for 4kg!

MM? Whats that?

 

[RagingMammoth]

Monsoon malabar......

Ah, cheers boots. Last time I tasted that was from a bag I got at Waitrose... *shudders*

 

[RagingMammoth]

Package has arrived! I was slightly confused when it came in a huge box, but was pleasantly surprised when they gave me a free sample.

Will be trying out in the next few days when I get through the remainder of Raves IJ.

 

[RagingMammoth]

Are they in proper 1 way valve bags and not just pinhole bags?

Afraid not. No valves on them at all.

Forgot to note, they where roasted the day I ordered them.

 

[RagingMammoth]

let us know what the Brazil Ipanema Yellow Icatu is like after a few days' date=' ive only read good things about it.[/quote']

Afraid my coffee palette is not very... advanced or good so my opinion isn't very valuable.

 

[RagingMammoth]

Everyone's opinion has a value .... Just let us know if you like it , don't be concerned it you don't want to use too many prosaic descriptors

I must admit, I couldn't have told the difference between Raves IJ and Mocha Java.

 

[RagingMammoth]

I lied about the bag. It does have a two way valve but it blends in with the packaging.

 

[RagingMammoth]

I must admit, I prefer it to Raves IJ. Really really good stuff, even if its only 2 days post roast.

 

[RagingMammoth]

Interesting! Why do you think it is a better choice for you?

I have no ways to describe the taste at all... but I prefer it.

 

[RagingMammoth]

One has robusta in it one is brazilian? They will taste different Raging just prefers one more. Is the Brazilian sweeter?

A bit I think.

 

[RagingMammoth]

Wasn't too happy with the sweet shop, but the all day blend is splendid. Prefer it as a dark roast rather than medium though.
