them?
I too need to have Columbians in my stash. The Narino del Abuelo were
my favorite, Tom ran out a month or two ago. I've only got 5# left and
regret not having ordered 40# instead of 20#. The others are nice, but
this one easily topped them in my home. I roast City in an Alp, but
expect to no longer do that. I hope to roast City in a Hottop tonight.
All my coffee is consumed as Americanos using a Jura E70.
BTW - The Panama Finca la Berlina did have a rating of 90 when it first
appeared on SM's site. Compared to Finca Maunier, though, it had
essentially identical scores for each respective attribute. I noticed
that, due to a clerical error, Finca la Berlina had received double
scores for body, getting a 3 AND 4. I e-mailed Maria, and the score was
edited. I subsequently found it interesting that so many people raved
about the La Berlina for so many weeks. It's good stuff, I slightly
prefer the Berlina to the Maunier myself. Still, the excitement here
seemed to stem as much from its total 'score' as its taste. I
understand that somewhat. Tom is a guy I trust, and he's pretty sparing
with 90 and above scores. That's why I REALLY need to get some of the
current Kenya offerings.
