Who has had a good bag from Square Mile lately?

[Tomas on Tour]

Brewer and filter: AeroPress XL; AeroPress XL paper
Grinder, burr and calibration: KINGrinder K6; 48 mm conical burr; 92 clicks from zero
Bean, roaster, process and roast date: Kenya Nyeri AA; Square Mile; washed; roast date 2026-08-30
Dose and water mass: 18.0 g coffee; 279 g water
Temperature and water profile: 92°C; Brita-filtered tap water, about 110 ppm TDS
Pour/agitation schedule: 63 g bloom for 40 s, then three pours; no stirring after bloom
Drawdown time: 3:45
Expected and perceived flavour: expected berry sweetness; perceived cup is sharp at first and hollow as it cools
Changes already tested: tested one brew with remineralized water while keeping the recipe fixed

I am looking for current reports rather than a greatest-hits list from five years ago. I am in United States, so shipping time and how the coffee arrives matter almost as much as the tasting notes. Recent bags first, please.

Recent United States report: my last order arrived within the normal window for domestic/import delivery and the roast date was recent enough that I still rested it before brewing. The useful part was consistency across two bags, not one spectacular cup.

Also in United States, but my order was a few months ago, so treat this as older evidence. Shipping was fine and the coffee opened up after about two weeks. I would still want a newer report before subscribing.

Foreign and older report, so this belongs lower in the pile. The coffee itself was excellent, but transit changed the resting window enough that my recipe notes are probably not portable to your order

If you are ordering one bag internationally, the shipping cost becomes a tasting note

I would rather know which coffee you finished than which bag photographed well.

I would rather know which coffee you finished than which bag photographed well. Hope that helps.
