Don't judge the book by its cover.

For some who had seen my earlier facebook wallpost, you've thought i really bought all three coffee.

Actually me, Fad and Suhaimie were catching up over cups of coffee at Suhaimie's place. Brewing coffees using his Expobar Leva Machine and Ditting grinder.

Only Seven Seeds beans were the original one. We didn't know what it consists of, we were told to "blind-taste" it.

The other two bags actually contains Sumatra Mandeling and Ethiopia Harar. About 4 to 5 days freshly roasted. I'm not sure if I can tell you guys who roasted them. Ask me personally alright.

The first course was Ethiopia Harar as a cappuccino and and espresso.I swear! I never drank Ethiopia Harar before.

Ethiopian Harrar coffee is a wild and exotic dry processed Arabica coffee that is grown on small farms in the Oromia region (formerly Harrar) in southern Ethiopia at elevations between 4,500 and 6,300 feet. The province of Harrar, is east of Addis Ababa, the country’s capitol.

Back to the espresso and cappuccino. I feel that... Its heavy-bodied, spicy and fragrant as an espresso. As a cappuccino, its body diminishes but it retain its spicy notes.

Not really my kind of taste. I'd prefer something with a "fruit sweetness" and chocolaty notes.
