CoffeeGeek - SCAA... Beans, Machines and In-Betweens (#)

„Listening to Dr. Joseph John (Josuma) discuss “Blending for Espresso” was another eye-opener, and the final seminar I attended, “Economic Viability for Farmers: the Roaster/Retailer Role” was a knockout! Here we had a grower, a wholesaler, and a retailer discussing the future of the industry, in terms of “Relationship Coffee”. In the long term I believe this is the only way out of the current depression in the Specialty part of the green coffee market, and it’s a solution that comes from within the industry rather than being imposed from outside.“

CoffeeGeek - Articles: CoffeeGeek Columnist Feedback, Buying Gear in Canada by Mark Prince (#)

„I am certainly an inconsequential customer for them with my small order of cups but all the same I am soured on the company.  Josuma uses UPS as their shipping company and I had to wait over 30 days for a bag of Malabar Gold to make its way from California to Calgary.  It was in Canada (Vancouver) for a brief while but ended up back in Seattle and then Chicago.  UPS wasn't open to refunding any part of the shipping cost but they were not shy about charging a $45 brokerage fee for an item (green beans) that has no tax or duty on it.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide (#)

„Medium growing altitudes (2,000 to 4,500 feet) mean India specialty coffees are balanced, sweet, and moderate in acidity, virtues that American specialty consumers often favor. And a virtue that coffee writers in particular appreciate is the articulate and informed leadership of two individuals who interface between India coffees and the American market: Joseph John of Josuma Coffee, the leading North American importer of India coffees, and Sunalini Menon, India's leading cupper and a vigorous spokeswoman for the India specialty coffee farmers.“

Tea & Coffee 11/03 - Is Espresso Good for Coffee? (#)

„Joseph John, president of Josuma Coffee Co. in Menlo Park, California had these general comments to offer about the current craze for espresso: "The growers and roasters are completely out of the loop in today's espresso drink culture. There are 80 different coffee growing countries, one not better than the other, just different." John doesn't have a problem with barista contests however; in fact, he feels they are important tools in raising the quality of North American espresso.“

„Much of India's production is consumed at home, and India has never achieved a reputation as a fancy coffee origin among North Americans.
