It's beginning to look like variety will only come from travel. I travel quite a bit to SF, Philly, London and Basel. Let me know of stores where I can pick up beans that are less than 'two weeks old' and varieties that are your favorites (describing, if you have the time, what you like about them). The problem is that I don't think I've had enough good stuff to be able to describe what I like. Strong aroma is important, but not necessarily too much bitterness... is that a paradox? Adit.
