MannyGate7 Very informative thank you!
Philip Coats Interesting to see that coffee comes from such a wide variety of places. Curious to know just how much the taste of each varies (with a similar roast temperature) due to soil composition and other localized variables.
Dean Dahlstedt Absolutely amazing that coffee is the 4th most popular drink in the world, yet it appears to be produced in such small quantities in many regions. This truly is a special drink. I now know why Hawaiian coffee so expensive. Only 100 bags a year! How many times have I roasted a Panama Esmeralda Gesha or a Kenya AA without realizing that those are the very best of only 90 and 850 bags per year respectively. These fact really make me realize how truly lucky we are to be able to enjoy the very best of this wonderful drink. Great article, thanks.
paul hees Great stuff, a lot of interesting information presented in a condensed but appealing format. As a big fan of both, it never occurred to me that Ethiopia produces 8 times as much as Kenya. Wondering if China is still growing- thought Yunnan was on course to rival Vietnam? Thanks!

I just purchased this product and served it over the weekend to some of my guest's.... everyone of them loved it! All complemented on the chocolate flavors . Even though its a 100 % Arabica beans I highly recommend it for milk based drinks.
Cappuccino's, Latte's and a some with syrup flavoring.
Very nice thick crema.
Michael Rosso ♦ I love all the Danesi products they do such a great job. It is such a treat when we get samples. As we speak Danesi Emerald is our Coffee of the week for all to experience and truly enjoy.
Daniel Moraldo ♦ The Danesi Emerald is an outstanding coffee.
Into "Spec & Performance" section is stated 100% Aabica, but into "Features" section it says, Arabica and Robusta.
What's the real coposition?

Kristen C David, these are on sale for the holidays and not because they are nearing the best by date. Coffee on sale because it's nearing it's best by date will say "at expiration" in the title so you can know the difference. Thank you for your inquiry!
