I tried a free sample of Nicaragua Jinotega. This offer is a great way to test out new flavours.
This is a really nice coffee without leaving a bitter after taste. It smells great when it is brewing!
My everyday bean is the Indonesia Sumatra Mandheling Origin Coffee Bean. I recommend trying that next time you order.

This one I rated a 3-star, but this should be taken in context to the fact that I tested 23 different samples and their all grade out of 5-star rating, so they can’t all be 5-star 😉
But it’s not a bad coffee, it is nice. It’s a medium body, with grapefruit and apricot flavours, so it does have a tangy aftertaste, I’d say medium acidity, but it also does have the fragrance and taste of nutty molasses with a hint of vanilla. I had a light roast, as I always do, so the individual flavours can be appreciated without any bitterness.
