My latest order came in the mail yesterday and I was fairly excited because I ordered some coffee that Alex mentions a lot, a yellow bourbon that is honey processed. Usually when I open the shipping bag I can smell the beans but this time there was hardly any smell. I looked at the bag and they shipped me the wrong beans. The next thing I noticed is the beans did not have that nice brown roasted look to them, they were dull looking, being color deficient I have a hard time with colors but to me they looked like a dark grey. Since I'm out of my last order I had no choice but to try them and decided to give them a fair chance. As it was brewing there was not much smell to them but it actually didn't taste all that bad. The next thing I noticed was how much I missed the caffeine so right now I'm having one of the wife's 8 o'clock k-cups to get my morning fix. I suggest doing this once in a while so one can really appreciate fresh coffee!
The bag says they are SWP so I went to the site and seen this means the process that was used is the swiss water method so I decided to look into this bit and found a site that talked about the methods used to remove the caffeine. What surprised me was the other methods that use chemicals, wow I'm glad what I got was SWP. I thought it was an interesting site so I posted the link in case others want a good read. While I don't understand the scientific side of this there is enough info there that the average guy can understand it.

I did email the vendor right away last night and this morning I seen they emailed me back apologizing and said they shipped my original order and will get it Saturday, I say that's good customer service.
