Green beans last little more than a year. Some are "aged" maybe up to
two years. They are typically the robusta variety used to enhance crema
development in espresso.
I've read that if stored proper they last MUCH longer...
Dark roast destroys the origin flavors of the bean. A good Ethipoia
Harar will have a blueberry finish to the cup.
All of the dark roasts that I have done do not support the above
statement...But hey, that is what I have found...
