Hi I saw similar posts and tier lists done before but it is sometimes just brands and I’d really wanna know which exact coffee from the brand’s catalog is actually the favourite of most people.

Please add your top favourites mentioning brand plus which exact coffee. So please don’t say Blue Tokai be specific ex Blue Tokai French Roast

Please add a comment in the following format :

<how many years you’ve been buying specialty coffee beans>
<Top 5 or less coffees comma separated so 1,2,3,4,5 (you can add upto 5 or less. Order them best to worst)>

Example comment to vote:
1
Araku Micro Climate, Blue Tokai French Roast

Aside from the top two lines of the comment feel free to add more light on your reasoning

I will probably accumulate the data and try to update somewhere once we get enough comments.

Please do upvote so this reaches enough people - I don’t care for karma only to compile a list that I can personally try out for my pour over and cold brew setup. I am into data analytics and would add the results later if we get enough traction on this post.

Context : back in 2024 I started exploring the new coffee roasters emerging in India and in December I tried La Bon Beans , at the time I discovered them through their website. After one week of receiving my order I got a call from a lady who happened to be one of the founders of the couple that has started this business( in July of the same year probably ). She asked how the coffee was , how the packaging was etc and she was genuinely curious and concerned about the customer's opinions and later told me about their story and all that . 2 weeks ago i was clearing out my kitchen cabinet and thought to myself, let me check em out one time and to my surprise they had micro lots added to their website, I was happy for them and wanted to order some beans just to check if anything had improved.

I placed an order on 1st May , no emails , no messages no nothing so far , I checked their google maps business thingie and i guess I'm not the only one who's going through this , apparently they have closed off temporarily (since November Idk, reviews on the google profile says so )

Just wanted to ask if anyone here knows what's going on with them or why they have gone under if they have ?
