Hunting for green beans

Postby Galitz » Wed Jun 25, 2008 11:06 am

I used to use Sweetmarias for my green bean fix, but I moved to Germany about a year ago and I would like to find a supplier that is closer to me. Can anyone provide a recommendation for a green bean vendor in the Euro zone?

You haven't mentioned your taste preferences, but if you like aged beans.

I love "aged" beans. But those are just "old". There is a difference! But who do I contact to get a sack or 2 of those 20 year old beans. They surely have to be cheap, and a great way to show whay coffee should not taste like!

Why not get some "aged" milk as well and you're your way to an "aged" latte. :P Personally I prefer my beans as I do my vegetables and fruit, FRESH!
