If you read Jeff’s post on traveling in Africa (read it here), you will understand that doing just about anything in Africa takes a while.  So we are excited to announce that our Ethiopian Beloya Selections One and Eight are finally on their way.  Because we are dealing with Africa, we do not have a definite date for the arrival of the coffee, but we do know that it will be here soon.  We are paying extra to have it air freighted out to us, so it will be as fresh as possible and will arrive as soon as possible.  In anticipation of its arrival, we are selling pre-orders with a $3 discount.

You can pre-order Beloya Selection Eight here.  It has a sweetness that comes through in the aroma is almost like berry-flavored cotton candy. In the cup the berry notes immediately jump out at you. These berry notes are complimented by a subtle and rich spiciness in the finish.

You can pre-order Belya Selection One here.  It is a very complete cup: it has a nice balance between the distinct berry notes and the smooth creaminess. The sweetness neither dominates nor fades.
