Thought people may be interested to know the Bolivia Auction was today. 16 roasters (that’s right 16 in a bidding group) won the winning lot. I got sent a photo from the Bolivian speciality coffee association showing all the farmers glued to a screen watching the results.
After a lot of stressing got the one I wanted which was very cool.

That's great Steve. We'll look forward to seeing it available soon. Will you be roasting it or just selling as greens?

With a lot size of 17 bags, I'd guess he'll sell it both ways
