I've been roasting for the last 7 years and discovered this bean while doing some roast testing to see what I liked. I've roasted a variety of others, including Ethiopian Yirgachaffe, Colombian and Brazilian beans, but I always come back to Finca Kassandra.

This was my first experience of green beans from Mexico and I was thoroughly impressed. The green beans were prepared perfectly and roasted consistently. I use the "dog bowl" method for that true hands-on interactive roasting experience and had no trouble roasting these beans to a beautiful dark roast.

I've been selecting coffees from around the world thanks to the great service and product offerings from the GreenBean Coffee guys and was eager to see what Mexico had to offer. The Mexican Kassandra RFA coffee is superb and immediately became my favourite coffee.

Everyone's coffee palate is different and I'm not eloquent enough to accurately describe all the flavours but I was impressed enough to put in an order for more.
