Mccoy!

I made a cold brew called, "Jamaica Blue"

Which WAS the beans from the blue mountains of jamaica! It was so good that I could not sell it to customers at my store- why? Because it is also so darn expensive. It is definitely the cadillac of beans. $124 for a pound, $40 for a bag of whole beans.

The beans were a christmas gift to me from a friend. I love the little synchronistic moments here at the portal lately.  There was an immediate caramel note upon initial sip. I was so shocked I thought someone added something to the beans. I did some research and learned a lot about the bean and how it was brought over from France a long time ago.

I had a custom label for Jamacia Blue and everyone loved it! I just gifted my last one to a friend and customer named Biaggio. Is it worth doing all the time? No. But if you manage to get some as a gift, it is definitely enjoyable for the connoisseur. 

I'm not sure if you were able to confirm in your last post-

Is "italain roast" the darkest style roast available? Do you know?

Thanks!
