I sent 2 bags. They are both marked on the bottom; one with an A, the other with a B. Same coffee, different profiles. Curious if you will find a noticeable difference.
I was hoping someone would do this.

How about some more reviews? Did everyone ship out?
I'm probably the slacker of the group. Dropped off the package today. I'll PM you tracking info.How about some more reviews? Did everyone ship out?
I had some of @jammin coffee this weekend (bag labeled 'A'). Man it was good. Looked like a perfect roast..
I agree! I especially like that he put (para phrasing here) "Brew this damn good coffee within 3 weeks!!!"^yeah thats pretty nice packaging!

did you notice any difference between the bags or find one more preferable?

What was the coffee used for this, @HarborTownBrewing ? I'm guessing something not very exciting by itself, any nuance to the coffee would probably be covered up by the bourbon.
I've had a couple barrel aged coffees in the past. One from Dark Matter, and... another one. I liked yours better, honestly. The dark matter one I liked in same way I like a double barrel aged cinnamon-roll coffee bacon pepper fried-egg maple-syrup vanilla cherry coconut stout. It was intense and tasty, but in an over-the-top way that makes one serving enough. Yours was like a good rum cake. Not subtle, but not overbearing either.I was interested to hear how you would like that. I like it using the Able Kone filter in the Chemex, which allows a little more body/oils to kind of go with the punchy flavors.
The base coffee was Colombia La Plata, as I recall. I can't remember the exact tasting notes, but when it's not aged in bourbon it has baking spice flavors and a little bit of sweetness. I think it was around an 89-point coffee - nothing exceptional, but has good body with subtle flavors. But you are correct, the flavors all get washed out with the bourbon though.
Well I have to say, I got quite the package today from @pshankstar. Not only did he spoil me with 4 different coffees but also threw in a homebrew, another beer, and three teas. What is funny is, I love tea and like to brew it in a Teaze, so I'm really looking forward to trying those loose leaf teas too.
You guys might have to give me a couple days to get through these for a review. Either that or I'm going to have one heck of a caffiene buzz tomorrow. Thanks again @pshankstar! View attachment 587101
I got quite the letter, but I don't kiss and tell

Both coffees are similar. I get pretty strong blueberries from both, but the B coffee has is stronger.
