M.A. Debuts!

M.A. may be a lesser degree than PhD, but Prof. Coffee’s M.A. blend is just as tasty. A mix of different Mexican and African beans according to availability and my whim, the current lot features FTO beans from Chiapas and FTO beans from the Hingakawa Women’s Association in Rwanda, a women’s empowerment organization that is part of the Abakundakawa (“Those who love coffee”) Co-op. I’ve been drinking different formulations of M.A. all week and think I found the sweet spot. I really like it. There’s a nice smooth creaminess to it, with berry and milk chocolate notes.

My supply the Hingakawa beans is low, but I have 15 pounds of FTO Rwanda beans from another co-op waiting in the wings. Ditto with the Chiapas beans. I’ll have to see what my supplier currently has on offer from Mexico.
