Cup of Excellence Nicuragua

Postby Steve » Thu Jun 16, 2005 9:17 pm

Dont know if any one saw the aution but a strange one today. The No.1 lot didnt fetch the most money, but the good news was it was much more spread than the Honduras one. Some interesting bids for the Organic ones too. Overall not a bad auction for so many coffee's, but a strange one.

Heres the link

Steve, you will often find this even with the COE. Part of the reason can be down to the name, or just even the size of the lot available. I know that it goes against the principal but it is quite common...... at least it means that you can sometimes pick the one that you want.

Sounds like you'll be getting an order from me soon Steve, my supply of Lozahoren is badly depleted :(
I wish I were what I was when I wished I were what I am.
