Just thought I'd share a blend I stumbled upon as a total guess. I was down to my last 50g of Zambian Lupilli AA so blended it with 50g of Yirg, 50g of Djimma and 50g of Brazilian Inglaterra. The Hottop took the whole lot to the very first pops of second crack and the result is remarkably pleasing given I just made it up on the spur of the moment
I wish I were what I was when I wished I were what I am.

Hard to describe, and since it was the tail end of the Zambian I didn't bother taking detailed tasting notes. It had some of the fruitiness of the Zambian combined with the slight caramel edge from the Ethiopians and a hint of chocolate from the Brazilian, if I had to put something descriptive down.
If I had some more Zambian I'd make it again, but I've got a huuuuuuuge stack of greens to use up before I go restocking anything that didn't positively blow me away.
