Question 1

Are these beans wet or dry processed?

Accepted Answer

These beans are wet processed/fully washed.

Question 2

How old are the Columbian Supremo green beans?

Accepted Answer

A date is not on the package but I can tell you after having roasted hundreds of pounds of beans (over 10 years of roasting) that the beans that were shipped to me were not old .

Question 3

how fresh are these beans?  i.e. when were they harvested, dried etc.?

Accepted Answer

If they are not shriveled or covered in mold, you can trust that they are ready for roasting.   In a covered container or burlap sack, they will keep indefinitely in a dark cool place.  Roast enough for a few days or a week because they are best when freshly roasted.  Because of medication, I have had to cut back on drinking coffee - even decaf - so the last beans were purchased three years ago.  I only indulge once a week so I roast enough beans for two pots and enough to serve expected guests for one week.  I usually buy 3-5 pounds at a time.  Always get compliments on the coffee I serve.

Question 4

What grade is this coffee? High grade doesen't mean anything...

Accepted Answer

Kochere  is  a  small  area  within  the  well-known Yirgacheffe coffee-growing region of  Ethiopia.      Located  in  the  SNNPR  (Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region)   of   southern   Ethiopia,   Kochere   is   just  south  of  the  town  of  Yirgacheffe  and  is  250  miles  southwest  of  Addis  Ababa.  The  area  contains    washing  stations  where  local  farmers  can  bring  their  coffee  for  processing  after  it  is  harvested.  The  iron-rich  acidic  soil  and    high  altitude  of  the  region  are  ideal  for  growing   specialty   coffee   and   the   Kochere   district  is  known  for  producing  some  of  the  most  lively  Yirgacheffe  coffees  in  the  region.
