According to Aust Post tracking they are still in QLD with the "we've got it" status.

Cuir_Beluga

They have now made it to Melbourne. Fingers crossed for Monday.

Cuir_Beluga

They are now in Adelaide and should be delivered tomorrow. I'm a tad excited 😛

Brett_H

Excellent! So that was how many days from ordering?

Cuir_Beluga

I ordered Saturday week, they shipped on the Monday afternoon so once they shipped, exactly 7 days.

Cuir_Beluga

They're here! They even threw in a bonus Honduras Intibuca, I don't know anything about them so I'm off to have a look.

Brett_H

Pretty good eh! Honduras.... wow. I don’t know I’ve ever had one of them!

Cuir_Beluga

Not bad at all I don't think. I will have to get my roast on, not just yet though as I have almost a kilo roasted at the moment.

Cuir_Beluga

In case anyone is interested, I just ordered another 10 kilos and the shipping shot up to $30.

Brett_H

Wow!! Was that the Sendle option?

Cuir_Beluga

I have no idea Brett, it didn't give me any options so I was assuming Aust Post.

Cuir_Beluga

So, my second lot of beans from ICT are being delivered today by Aust Post along with 5 kilos from elsewhere. For some reason it was much faster going this time round by Aust Post. My first order took a week, this one 4 days. Excited! :rofl:

Brett_H

Brilliant! Hope you like them as much as I do!

Cuir_Beluga

I had a minor hiccup this time around. There was one bag missing but I used their live chat function and I was told they would have one sent out to me that day. No harm done.

Hi everyone I'm looking at buying some beans from ICT for the first time. Anyone have any particular beans they have tried and would recommend? I'm looking at trying various ones from Africa, South and Central America, India ... the "works and jerks" as my Dad would say ;-) Thanks, Dan

Cuir_Beluga

So far out of what I have bought from ICT I have roasted and drank the Burundis, Sidimos, and the Kongas and they were all lovely. YTMV (Your tastes may vary) :coffee2:

DrD

Thanks so much ... had the Sidamo and Konga on my list, just need to work out a few others now. It is a problem when you are spoilt with choice ;-)

Cuir_Beluga

It is, so many good ones to try. Perhaps grab a "mystery bag" too, I did with my last order.

Brett_H

Hi mate, they’re all fresh! Some stand-outs I’ve had have been their Monsooned Robusta and any and all of the Brazilians and the Nicaraguan Santa Rita.

Cuir_Beluga

They have a couple of new ones in too 😛
