Jiyoon is so relaxed and easy to understand. Brian might want to cut back on the caffeine a bit.

This is an unbelievable coffee. I loved trying it. Can’t wait to open mine

Imagine drinking 87.25

Imagine falling short of an absolute standard of taste by 0.25 points 😭

Oops, all quakers

Really enjoyed the topic about what makes a coffee score so highly. My wallet just got lighter due to Bean and Bean still having some of this in stock 😅. Looking forward to trying out this lovely coffee in a few weeks.

We don't get much Panama coffee out here in Indonesia, although we do get some. Common Grounds in Jakarta had an Elida estate gesha in November 2023 and I think it might be the best coffee that I have tasted. It was superb, I remember a really clear earl grey tea note. So jelly that you guys have that right now. Thanks for the great content as always Brian!

I’d love to know more about how it was roasted. Like, how many sample roasts did they do before finding the profile for the larger batch? I roast at home with a Kaffelogic Nano 7, and would typically hit such a coffee with a lot of heat early, and then transition to a smooth, slow finish - kind of like searing a steak and then gently heating it through. Did they also use a high charge temperature and slower development, or do they have a different approach to an intense, high elevation, washed coffee? Thanks!

The people demand answers!

Added to my bucket list

Over the years had many Altieri, Janson, Mikava, Savage, Ninety Plus, Abu coffees which are 90+ scored and they are different animal at least to say. Some of them are pricey but some of them have decent price versus what you get. Atm have Savage Elipse and Enigma which are 94 score and Janson 91 score, can't wait to try them these days. Cheers!

So, not being American my impression from Brian's channel is that the bay area is like 90% Asian ..... Is it?

Ironically, he's not in the Bay Area here! Bean and Bean is a Asian mother-daughter owned roaster and coffee chain in NYC! The roastery is out in Queens.

I don't know how I came across this video, but it seems so damn pretentious. for 99% of the population, this is just elitist bullshit.

It's hard to describe the taste / experience which they're doing a good job of doing. You probably have never tried a good light roast high quality Ethiopian or gesha coffee. They talk about cost at the end, I think Brian is pretty down to earth.

@@BensCoffeeRants I’m coming from a buy whole bean at my local grocer coffee experience where I brew with a French press. My favorite has been Mexican coffee. I grind it at home. It just seems absurd that these types of coffees cost so much. Is there really that much of a difference? Like I said, most people can’t afford stuff like this. I guess I’m just uneducated.

@@JwaukechonIMO there is absolutely diminishing returns and not to mention these coffees may not be everyone’s taste preference. I would say a 90* point coffee will taste better than an 85 but not at 10x the cost.

If you tasted the Coffee you would understand. I was lucky enough to drink a 90 plus Gesha in Brighton a few months ago and it changed my life.
