a tidal wave of new coffee arrivals

So many new arrivals at once. Some lots were delayed in shipping, but everything seemed to come in at once! Therefore, it's all I can manage right now to give you a list of links and some short descriptions - Tom

Brazil Daterra Farms -Yellow Bourbon - I have been waiting for this arrival forever; a complex coffee from a fantastic "model" farm.
Brazil FTO Dry-Process Poco Fundo - That fruited, earthy, chocolatey rustic beast. This particular lot was very nice.
Ethiopia FTO Yirgacheffe Oromia - Incredible early arrival. Jasmine, jasmine, jasmine.
Rwanda FT Duhingekawa Womens Cooperative - A sweet citrusy coffee from 70 women in Rushashi Rwanda.
Sumatra FTO Gayo - Tanah Tinggi - Extremely low acidity, high body, dense, foresty.
Hawaii Kona - Kowali Blue Mountain - A micro, micro lot of Jamaica Blue Mountain seedstock grown by Skip and Rita in Hawaii.
Hawaii Kona - Moki's Farm - Typica cultivar in the traditional vein from a true mauka farm in Kona.

Dattera YB would be very nice

Dattera YB would be very nice for a sweet, nuanced SO espresso, but don't expect the thickness or chocolate you might get from a natural coffee, like our Cerrado offerings. -Tom

Great to see all the new

Great to see all the new coffees! It is kind of hard to maintain my stash reduction mode with all those great coffees available! I was wondering why you guys didn't ever seem to have a Brazil Daterra on your offering page. I am sort of new to the espresso world and I was curious if the Daterra "Yellow Bourbon" would be a good choice for a S.O. espresso? I didn't see any mention of this coffee being good for espresso in your review. I know some Brazils get ashy at a darker roast, but I wasn't sure about this one.
