Don't know.

I wish I knew more about coffee, but all sortsof things are huge improvemnets ove many years ago.

I really like the peabury coffee--either Indian or Tanzanian.

Hi tippet,

At our house we are, well we think we are, connoisseurs of coffee. <gg> In my opinion Jamaica Blue Mountain is the best coffee in the world, but 15 years or so ago when the hurricane went through Jamaica the Japanese bought all the coffee plantations and the last time I saw this coffee it was selling for $85 per lb. This was in England last year.

We drink Hawaiian Kona now and I purchase it directly from a small plantation on the islands. They have both the regular bean and the peaberry bean. I am paying $21.80 per lb including shipping for the regular beans when I buy it in 5 lb lots. Before I found these folks I was paying $32.00 a lb for Kona at my local grocery store and I know the stuff had been roasted many moons before I bought it. <g>

We all have our vices. <VBG>
