The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

Wanted to gauge interest in some sort of coffee exchange. I roast my own coffee and would love to see what others think. Plus I think it’d be fun to try out local roasters from around the US/world.

Anyone interested in something like this?

I would, but shipping between America and europe is ridiculously expensive. 10x the value of the coffee lol

As he is on feddit.nl I would guess the Netherlands.

Pyrus was close, I am in Belgium. We have some great brewers here. Almost everything is "local" since it is so small.

https://mokcoffee.be/ and https://wideawake.coffee/ lead the pack for my tastes.
