For that kind of coin, what kind of varmint pooped those beans out?
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

I don't get the Geisha coffee craze, I don't really like it myself. I have 60 Arabica plants on my property and roast my own old shool style. Much better IMO.

...and that price is just the unprocessed cherries, not even roasted.

Wow. About $50 a cup?

That's the amount they quoted in the link I gave above. I don't do drugs anymore, but you can buy 5 grams of the purist cocaine for $20...a kilo for $700 here.
