Dear Friends, Family and Loyal JBC Enthusiasts,

It's been another crazy, exciting couple of weeks here at the roastery. We've been working our tails off to find more great coffees to start out 2012 and we're happy to report great success. Read below to see just how excellently we've done and grab a few new selections or pick up a couple of your old favorites!

May 2012
Vol. 23


2 New Fantastic Rwandas
We recently participated in the monthly coffee challenge on CoffeeReview.com and we did
exceptionally. Our Bufcafe Rwanda tied for 1st place and received 93 points. Our Kinundu Rwanda received 91 points and we couldn't be happier. Try a bag of each and see how this new coffee compares to some of your old favorites.

Tano Batak Sumatra, 93 points
As many of you know, we've always had great fortune sourcing Sumatran coffees and our skills continue to shine. This 93 point gem, Tano Batak Sumatra, is full of delicious flavor with an excellent body to boot. You'd be remiss to pass on this delicious coffee.

For You Espresso Lovers, 93 point Elizer
We know there are many of you out there who love your espresso, lattes and cappuccinos. We've found another stellar espresso just for you. Our Elizer Espresso received 93 points! As a straight shot or with milk you absolutely won't be disappointed.

Shanta Golba, 2 ways
We recently sent in our Natural Processed Fair Trade Ethiopian as both a drip and as an espresso roast. Both ways scored over 90 points! The drip version received 92 points while the espresso roast received 90 points. Either way this coffee is bursting with incredible aromatics and an intense flavor that shouldn't be missed. Try it as an after dinner treat with some chocolate and find yourself in a blissful state of euphoria.


New Crop El Salvador 2012
For all of you who have been patiently waiting for our new crop El Salvador options, your wait is nearly over. Michael has been visiting the farm at regular intervals all winter and spring charting the progress of some of our favorite coffees. He assures us it will only be a few more weeks before this fantastic coffees find their way to our doors. Keep a sharp eye out and in the meantime don't miss out on the 2011 version while they are still here.

As always, thanks for your time and support. We couldn't do
this without your love of great coffee
