Anyone that has bought or even just seen roasted Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans, can you tell me if the beans are glossy and oily. Because the beans I bought from the stock GWDC are not. Also the beans are small in size compared to most coffee beans I'm use to. They are a medium brown with no sheen or oil to them at all. I bought a few varieties, and the JBM and Yemen beans have the same apperance. Smaller and the roast is quite light. The Papua New Guinea beans look like Killer Beans. Dark rosted with an oily gloss, almost twice the size of the JBM beans ( I'll be honest, they taste nothing like African Assassin, my fave Killer, but they cost alot less, I'll be paying the difference ). As for the taste of these JBM, nice smooth silky feel, low acid, rather sweet and very mild. Anyway enough of that, I'd really like some education on Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans. From what I've read these are some of the best coffee beans being produced, right along side the famous Kona bean.
Please help, but no need to post that you don't know, but wish you could help!
Thanks!
