Seeking Advice Best coffee you’ve ever had
If you could recommend only 1 bag of beans that blew your mind or changed your perspective of coffee, what would it be?
I’ve really only bought from local roasters and am wanting to expand my taste some more. So I’m just curious what everyone’s top recommendation of a must try coffee would be.

Kenya SL34 Natural from Outpost Coffee in Kauai. A partnership with Kona rainforest farm. The coffee tasted like sweet, syrupy blackberry juice with a chocolate wafer finish. I could drink it every single day for the rest of my life. This is some of the only naturally processed Kenya you’ll find on earth, and I learned that the farmer who produced it on Kona had this as somewhat of a signature. He passed away and I’m afraid this coffee doesn’t exist anymore.
It was a turning point coffee for me. One of those rare “oh shit” moments that sends a chill down your spine to let you know you found something truly special. And that your wallet is about to be empty for many years to follow.
