First off I would like to say thanks you to Norman (Novasurf) for his great coffee and cigar. Thanks Norman.

When the mail man came, i could smell the coffee as soon as I opened the door. A great bold smell.

I recieved the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, not sure how to say it...lol. The smell has a strong herbal smell, almost sweet. I brewed it in my new french press and it came out amazingly. The flavor is bold and tangy with very little acidity and sharpness. It has a great balance between strength and flavor. Paired it with a LGC Serie R maduro...mmmm.

I urge all of you coffee fans to give it a try.

Also, i recieved it on 3-7-07...it was roasted 3-3-07. I could tell such a diff. having it roasted so soon. Also, they will grind it any way you want. Great website.

Thanks again Norman, for the coffee and the cigar.

Joel

i also was one of the lucky few who received a freebie and a stowaway! i got the Negrita. The smell was amazing when i opened the package, nice full bodied aroma. i'm no coffee expert, i just know i like it strong. well i was a little dissappointed when the first batch came out a little weak.good thing i had all weekend to work with it and get it to my liking and i have to say WOW!!!!!! the freshness makes a world of difference, and the taste was as smooth as i've ever had. flavors i couldn't tell you, all i know is i found the a great blend that i will buy again. my wife also loved the fresh brewed aroma and she also enjoyed a few cups, she does like hers a little lighter, but still enjoyed it very much. we will try other blends as i recommend everyone should. Norman , thank you very much, you are a generous man and i will be a repeat customer.

I too was the recipient of Uncle Beanz generosity. Liked the mug so much I ordered another one. You can imagine my surprize when I received it and the package included a free 8 oz. pouch of green beans to try! This is what I call extreme good will from a vendor. Thank you for the sample and you can bet I will be ordering again from Uncle Beanz with this kind of customer service. BTW, the sample is organic utz kapeh Ethiopian from th Kaffo forest!

I will certainly let you know how it comes out. I use an SCCO set up. Been roasting for years, just under second crack it will be. Thanks for the tip.
