Hi Hans;

I'm intrigued... your website says "the green beans are then roasted and let sit for up to 8 days." - do you mean that's the oldest you'll sell them at, or are they that age when dispatched? Surely not?? I have found that the shelf life of arabica is 7-10 days max, with the BEST flavour developing after 2-3 days. Can you enlighten me, as I also share your passion for the freshest beans possible? Thanks, Eddie, Machiatto Espresso

Thanks Hans. We're planning our itinerary now and will be on both the north and south islands. What do you think are the do not miss spots to see or do things? What is special to New Zealand?
