Price history
Filled markers are recorded price or stock changes per capsule; hollow markers are additional archived sightings that confirmed the same local price. A line spans only dates on which the listing kept being seen, gaps mean continuity is not established, and dashed stretches are periods observed out of stock.
Converted to $ at the reference rate of each observation's own date, so every market is what it would have cost you on the day it was read.
Hover a line or a market name to read it; press one to keep it lit, and press again to release. Several can be held at once.

Flavour notes
About this coffee
Origin
This 100% arabica is created using beans from two distinct Brazilian regions: Cerrado - well-known for its quality - and Espirito Santo, which brings in the herbal notes that define this coffee.
Roasting
Espirito Santo beans are roasted separately for an optimal time as to preserve the herbal notes. The beans from the other regions are roasted together in a dark roasting mode and for much longer to enhance body, intensity and bitter notes.
