I was discussing different beans with Jeff from mycuppa a few weeks ago and he let it be known that he had a wonderful Colombian bean coming and that it had to be one I tried, I’ve only ever had a Colombian bean once before and that was very early on.
Jeff has no let the Crema forum members know what he thinks
Here is what Jeff had to say about Colombia Excelso La Union USQ
The small part that really said ‘buy it, buy it, buy it’ – It’s a small screen and a medium density bean and would benefit from a darker roast profile to bring in additional soft chocolate and heavy caramel tones, balancing out some of the acidity, but we want it to retain the character of a punchy coffee, especially in milk.
Hopefully I might get to try it out at a darker roasting profile

A good roaster deserves free publicity
I wouldn’t want you to do a roast just for me, I’ll see if some of the other guys are interested in a darker roast as well
