Recommend a Badger to me!

ArcticFox

I bought a batch from Badger and Dodo there shortly after Christmas - a kilo of "Daterra Estate's Bruzzi".

Really enjoyed it but would like a change.

Could anyone here recommend another bean from their range please?

Thanks!

Could try some 60g samplers...

Not a bad suggestion.....

Unless I get a solid recommendation from a Boarder, then I may have to go that route.

Thanks

Does it have to be from B&D?

No, but I really enjoyed their last batch so I thought that I would support them again.

Otherwise, I'm open to suggestions

Like the Blackwater blend myself.

If you want to stay with an Irish roaster but are open to mixing it up Coffee Angel has some really superb offerings

I keep hearing good things about Dara Bonka although I have yet to try some myself.

If money is less of an object then some of the English roasters have amazing offerings at the moment if you fell like splurging.

Blackburn Estate (rich, honey sweet, dark fruits), Agoga (mouthful of berries) and Toarco Jaya (oranges, chocolate and honey) all come highly recommended from me.

I highly recommend Has Bean's Finca Bolinda, been blowing my mind all week. But it is incredibly hard to go wrong with any of their other offerings as well

I was just about to reccomend a similar selection to that of Dahtac's.

How are you making your coffee?

ArcticFox

Thank you for all the recommendations, I really appreciate all the advice.

To answer your question, I am using a Gaggia Baby Dose

Dahtac

With the Gaggia definitely recommend the Has Bean Bolinda. Although you might also be interested in some of their espresso blends as well. Kicker, Jabberwocky, Blake and Jailbreak are all stunning coffees.

My Squaremile suggestions were more filter coffees than espressos. That said their new Spring Espresso Blend has been receiving rave reviews, although I haven't had a chance to get my hands on some yet.

Thanks for all the recommendations.
