The Javagirl Goes A-Cupping (#)

  „The price point prompts me to ask Jay about a couple of other "rich" coffees with which I'm familiar. Ethiopian Peaberry, he tells me, is unique in that it comes from a smaller bean and offers a more intense flavor. Jamaica Blue Mountain may be best known because of its price, which is often $40 a pound. Neither of the last two coffees is available at Peet's.“

The Coffees of Ethiopia

  „Ethiopian coffees can vary greatly from lot to lot. It takes A LOT of cupping to find the specific lot of coffee that is superior. MAO Horse imports a lot of coffee, but each year one specific "chop" (lot number) out-cups the others. Since lots differ in character, and I do so much to find the best lot, we are now listing the Lot Number in the description of the coffee.“

India coffee - ICTA response buoyed by domestic dealers

  „Consequently, domestic dealers accounted for 60 % of the overall quantum sold today, focusing on Plantation grades like Peaberry, A and C, as also on Robusta Cherry AB. Exporters were selective for Plantation A. Two of the three more active domestic dealers were from Karnataka, Cothas and Modern, the third being the Tamil-Nadu based C Punniammal.“

CoffeeGeek - Espresso: Espresso Blends, List of green coffees to start blending with

  „For drip coffee I would suggest experimenting with Guatemalan, Costa Rican, Tanzania peaberry, Ethiopian (the Ethiopians are ALL good: Harar, Sidamo, and Yirgacheffe).  Also you may like to try Sulawesi, Kenya and maybe even an exotic like Kona or Jamaican Blue Mountain (it's terribly expensive but also a unique coffee).“

www.coffeereview.com - the worlds leading coffee buying guide - Mocha-Java Blends

  „They are also a bit cheaper than Yemen Mochas. Of the ten blends in the cupping, three used a Harrar, six used a Yemen Mocha, while one introduced a Yirgacheffe, a wet-processed Ethiopian coffee with an entirely different profile from either Harrars or Yemens. Of the three blends that used a Harrar I considered one particularly successful (score of 80 or higher), and of the six that used a Yemen I assigned two a score of 80 or higher. The Yemen success rate may in fact be better than two of six, since a couple of the lower-rated Yemen-using blends raised flavor issues that were more related to roast than to green coffee identity.“
