After 2 and a half months, the Brazilian customs finally sent me the parcel. Too bad it was already ground coffee.

Never received anything. Sigh.
Hi! I'm Seba from Santiago, Chile. I'm the owner of the coffee trike "Cafe Triciclo" and i'm also currently working at "Café Lama" a local coffee micro roastery. I got this coffee from Victrola Coffee Roasters, Seattle. It's a blend from Latin American (I think it's Nicaragua) and Africa (Uganda). I prepared at home using V60, but i will try later on espresso. So far so good ;) Thanks Brian from Seattle!
I live near Stuttgart/Germany and finally got this wonderful coffee from Dave in Washington DC
It's a Geisha from Panama, not tried it yet but i am very curious about it!
Hi there myko from Switzerland is calling - i received from Antje from Aachen (Germany) a very colorful nice coffee called Plums and comes from Germany oldest Coffee Roastery! Thanks Antje!
Here's another post-Wichteln trade I conducted with a contact from Poland that I met on Third Wave Wichteln's Facebook. He sent me Drop Coffee's Costa Rica El Trapiche (from Stockholm) and Coffee Proficiency's Ecuador La Papaya Microlot (from Warsaw). Two very different coffees that complement each other like a meal. The Coffee Proficiency La Papaya is like the main course, herbaceous and spicy with a strong backbone. The Drop Coffee El Trapiche is like the dessert, super sweet and luxurious. I brewed up both on a Bonmac dripper. The Drop Coffee was my favorite and will be tough to top this year.
I am located in Los Angeles and traded with someone in Freiburg, Germany after the official Wichteln had ended. We had both missed the deadline so we did a direct trade. I have since had two successful post-Wichteln trades. This bag is from Elephant Roasters, and it's from Bayali Coop in Nepal. If not for this trade I would not have even known that Nepal was a coffee growing region. This one struck an elegant balance between earthy minerality and fruity acidity.
This was awesome! My name is Justin and I live in Providence, Rhode Island and I received a coffee from New Zealand roaster, Rocket Coffee. It was a Kenya Mukure AA and it was great. I made a few different pour over's (kalita wave, hario v60, chemex) and really enjoyed the complexity of the cup. I was hoping to receive a coffee from Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Denmark, UK or Japan because I've heard these markets have really flourishing specialty coffee scenes and lo and behold I got a coffee from one of my hopeful possibilities. This was a radical experience and I can't wait to participate next year!
I live in Berlin, Germany. I received Hacienda La Esmeralda from the Jacu coffee roastery in Norway. I am brewing it pour over style with a Kalita Wave dripper. It is a truly exquisite coffee, wonderfully roasted, bringing out the best in the beans - I detect pleasant citrus and almond-like aromas, it's nicely sweet and smooth. #happy !!
I live in Aberdeen, Scotland and work part-time as a coffee roaster in a small independent roastery called MacBeans. I received this lovely Kenyan Chorongi (Nyeri region) from David in Budapest. It's a really well-balanced, bright and fruity coffee with notes of blackberries and cranberries. I've experimented with a few different brew methods and I think my favourite way to prepare this coffee is with the AltoAir (http://www.bairroalto.co.uk/product/altoair). Thanks again, David!
#thirdwavewichteln action in Heidelberg. Thx to Christoph from Bern for the nice Lungo with coffe from Brazil, India, and Ethiopia. Great taste!
Hi there folks I'm from Stutensee, Germany and One of my best friends surprised my with this goody - Panama Santa Teresa Estate Geisha from #goodkarmacoffee - oh so tasty 😆
A great post-Christmas present received in Aotearoa New Zealand from Florian in Munich Germany. A lovely mellow coffee from Man Versus Machine Coffee Roasters Had a filter coffee made in my Chemex and a long machiato in my Espresso ... a great way to begin 2015. Ngā mihi nui
I'm living in Germany and received this awesome bag of Coffee and a nice greeting card from Corinne (USA) today. Thank You!A Skeleton riding a Bike, a Butterfly, Fair Trade, Just Coffee and a Mark Twain Quote ("Get a bicycle, you will not regret it if you live"). Wow!
Actually I don't have the right equipment at home to brew it, but will share my experience with you as soon as possible.
I was pleased to receive these tasty Kenyan beans from Hungary. They were delicious. I like to prepare my coffee using an Aeropress and these beans really shine using this method. This was quite a punchy, fruity roast which works really well taken black (as I like it) but not sure about with milk in a latte (to be honest I haven't tried yet).
A big thank you to my Secret Coffee Santa friend in Budapest :)
Coffee I recieved from Michael in San Fransisco, CA! I am from NYC and the coffee I received was Four Barrel - Gatomboya Peaberry - Kenya
To be prep'd in my aeropress this week!
Thanks Mike!
I'm from California and I got coffee shipped to me from a small roaster in Indiana. The coffee itself is from Columbia and I enjoyed it very much. It had a nice earthy flavor and was very delicious. I can't wait to participate in the next Third Wave Wichteln!
