I have affectionately dubbed this coffee "Blueberry Cobbler"! This may be the best coffe I've ever had in my life! Although, I'm a huge fan of Yemen's too....but this one really stood out for me. I roasted the WP sister of it and there was no comparisson. Anyone else in love with this coffee? |

YES! c:1 I went through 5 lbs of it a while back, absolutely delicious stuff. It had the most pronounced berry/blueberry flavor I've ever experienced in a cup of coffee. I'm kicking myself for not buying more... Probably will be my next greens purchase if its still available when that time comes. |

I love this one as well. I didn't buy much and sold about half and then pulled it off the sale list to remain in my personal reserve. YUM!! Respect the bean.

Hi, Clifford. Depends on the roast, of course. At the moment, I'm looking for the huge blueberry explosion in the Ethiopia Sidamo. I've gotten blueberry, but it wasn't huge. For me, to date, the Koratie is bigger, but I've had it longer and more time to play with it. So far I've only roasted the Sidamo twice. Respect the bean.

As far as I know there is no more of this to be had. The wet process version of it did nothing for me. Anyone know a source that has any of this? |

I've roasted both, although I went through the Koratie a while back so my recollection may not be completely accurate as I can't taste them side by side. I think the Sidamo has/can have more intense blueberry than the Koratie. What I remember about the Koratie was that it wasn't always distinctly blueberry, sometimes it presented as other berry flavors like blackberry or maybe cranberry (i.e. sometimes more semi-sweet and tart).

I just checked on the internet and Zephyr has some on their available list.. maybe we can convince Chad to organize the sale of a bag so we can taste them side by side. I want to continue dancing around Blueberry Hill to the accompaniment of Fats I get my thrill on Blueberry Hill
