Sometimes they get two growing seasons per year. I couldn't justify the price for an inferior bean that is supposed to set the standard,,we drank Blue Mountain for years and until it changed two years ago due to a poor crop year..,,,,I haven't tried this year's crop yet,.........nothing like world class whole bean from a press out of a ceramic mug. Ditto for the smoked salmon, although smoked mullet is a dead tie when making spread. Well, This years crop was good, and there is a bean that comes from the next mountain over that is damn near as good. The local coffee shop orders the whole beans for me, and I grind them fresh for each pot. heck I love the smell of fresh ground beans as much as I love drinking the fifnal product. |

Oh yea, I agree,,,,when possible, never grind the beans until right before brewing, but many places don't sell Blue Mountain whole bean because they sell it by the cup. Mail order has yielded me the best bean, but you really pay for it. What is the going price this year for the Blue Mountain? I think it was around 42 bucks per pound before the bad crop. I can imagine what it went to in the following year. ------- You might try Gevalia http://www.gevalia.com/gevalia/catal..._ADDED =false I can ask the local store for their suppliers information also From Gevalia it is $24.95 for 8 oz whole beans so $49.90 for a pound I buy alot of coffee from Gevalia. Strange, someone played with my settings on my news reader at the office. -- -- KC8TCQ remove "nospam" from email to reply "3 out of 4 people surveyed, belong to 75% of the population." |
