I've only bought Blue Mountain once from them; cheap, it is not. At $34 per 12 ounce bag, it is a luxury.
I'm partial to La Minita Tarazu, which comes from Costa Rica, and the finca there is owned by Bill McAlpin, who is also the president of Distant Lands Roasters (and a cigar smoker, at least he used to be). My wife and I have tried their other beans, and many are very, very good, but we keep coming back to La Minita.
They have an on-line store...La Minita isn't cheap either, but at their current sale price of $9.99 for a 12-oz bag, it's worth a try vs. Blue Mountain.
Let me know if you enjoy it...
