Coffee Shrub

Coffee is a multi-stemmed, gangly, awkward, diminutive shrub. CoffeeShrub is dimunitive too; a micro-seller of coffee serving small shops that roast. We sell nitrogen-flushed, vacuum-packed bricks of unroasted green coffee in amounts roughly equal to a 1/4 of a traditional jute bag, as well as some offerings packaged and sold in Grain-Pro bags weighing 60lbs. You have the convenience of thorough, descriptive reviews as a starting point for your own tasting notes, and also relevant information about the farms including images that you can use to promote the coffee. Look over our coffees and see if any of these offerings would compliment your current list.

I uploaded a video to youtube about green coffee freshness and seasonality, basically a spontaneous monolgue of random thoughts, while I was roasting a bunch of super-fresh Guatemala samples. It's a "talking head" video, not very exciting, but I...
