Persephone N Alchemy Blend, Black Cat Classic and Gethumbwini, Kenya SO

Counting down the minutes of knocking off to a not-a-long-weekend-after-all. (Conducting a Barista workshop this Saturday!) Did nothing much today apart from roasting a 120kg load after lunch. Tanzania, Sumatera, Indian and Yirgacheffe. Interesting blend, reminds one of Moka Java....

Anyway, received two calls back to back. One was from dear Wifey and another from John Ting but both carrying good news. Coffee good news. My Intelligentsia orders came through not long ago. Quite effecient as orders was placed on 12/04, shipped out on the 15th and arriving just before the holiday and weekend, which is today. I know i will be wearing a new 'Intelli' coffee Tee to work this Saturday and also sipping Espresso from the Persephone & Alchemy Blend and the now famous Black Cat Classic. (Wondering how good a traveller are they and whether the profile will change throughout the journey.)

On another note, a good friend, John Ting did me a favour by freshly roasting a batch of Gethumbwini and delivering it to Temple St. (Although i am not there to collect it, but i will drink you this Saturday....) I heard that this SO is running low and as i have yet to taste it, texted him last night to place an order. Roast on Demand you can call it, John also offered to 'ship' it for free via his trusty bike. (Now, how good a traveller is an Oriole coffee on a bike? hahahahahaha)

Cant wait to be back home and brew the coffees. Rest assured that i will be snapping some pictures and posting it here. Have a blast of a weekend people. I know i will with excellent coffee/s accompanying me through.....
